[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would tell my daughter that all religion is sh**ty to women. Do you want to go on these field trips and cover your head? As an atheist kids need to experience the crappiness of religion so they know what they’re rejecting.[/quote]

This is clearly a troll.[/quote]

What? I’m not a troll. There isn’t a religion on the face of this earth that believes women are equals to men. Even in Buddhism, one cannot reach enlightenment as a woman. [/quote]

Please. I'm a Catholic and I feel 100% equal to men. I've never ONCE felt "less than" during a Mass or any Church gathering. Ironically, it seems to be the self-identified athiests on this thread who want to define me as less than a man.[/quote]

What if you wanted to be a priest? Would you still feel equal to men in the Catholic Church?[/quote]

Sorry...a women would be out of luck.   Priesthood is only for men...still..in 2022.   That is the message catholic females get.[/quote]

Is this such a big slight? I also can’t access other professions because I lack physical strength or a particular proclivity toward a subject.

If you aren’t Catholic, are you the right person to be commenting on how the Church makes females feel? [/quote]

NP. You just made their point for them! Being a priest involves no physical and special skill other than a penis. Because the people with the penises said so. What's scary is how easily they've brainwashed you into believing that excluding women is just like those things.[/quote]

I’ve spent about 3 seconds of my life feeling upset about being denied the opportunity to be a priest. Heck, I’m more upset that being a woman means I’ll never earn that NFL salary. I’ve spent years actively participating in Masses and service to the community. I’ve taken on many leadership roles.  I’ve never once felt “2nd class.”

I’ve already been the target of insults on this thread. You claim I’m brainwashed. You don’t know me, nor do you know any of the nuances of my beliefs. You are still comfortable making judgments about me, and you are comfortable denigrating my personhood. How is that different than what you claim the Catholic Church does to me?

This entire thread is about whether people should explore new faiths in the name of education. I’ve done that. I’ve visited mosques, synagogues, Quaker meeting houses, etc. I have actually met people from many faiths. I would never stoop to insult them or their beliefs, the same way I have not insulted yours.

I will say one thing that’s on my mind: I wonder if you consider yourself open-minded. [/quote]
