Dirty Little Catholics


Reuters reports that the Vatican will excommunicate women priests. I say good! Why would women want to be part of your penis waging, boy-loving men only club? Those women better wake up and smell the coffee and leave the faith all together. The Catholic doctrine is a sexist piece of work. How can anyone follow a faith when it doesn't adhere to future generations? If god is all knowing and eternal he should know about the ever changing society within these two millennial. In fact, the men who wrote the bible were all sexist! How were women portrayed in the Bible? Well, let's see they were prostitutes, beggars, lepers... oh, yeah and rape victims who were raped in the name of faith!

The report explains more on the Vatican's decision. The Vatican says, "[The Church] cannot change the rules banning women from the priesthood because Christ chose only men as his apostles. Church law states that only a baptized male can be made a priest." Now ain't that a good piece of PR. I see this as a battlefield situation. Command [in this case the bible and old Vatican law] says you need to kill the hostages to save the world, but the private [present day followers of the Catholic faith] make their own judgements. The leader, decided to take commands word for it, but the private thinks otherwise and there should be another way. The leader takes matters into his own hands and shoots himself in the foot and gets his private killed by the ricochet. Talk about depressing! The Vatican knows that these times are different from back then, but they refuse to buckle and change law. WHY? I remember back in the day learning about Catholicism where the first and second Vatican council decided not to do mass exclusively in Latin and that the priest should look at the congregation. What about another Vatican council? In fact, I think it's a good move on the Catholic faith, because it means more people will leave the faith. I'm all about leaving religion behind.

Greetings! Saw your post in Google Blogsearch and came to read.

>"Reuters reports that the Vatican will excommunicate women priests."

Then Reuters is in error, as the Vatican said that the women have excommunicated themselves. No action from the Vatican is required.

>"If god is all knowing and eternal he should know about the ever changing society within these two millennial."

He does and that's exactly why he provided the Church as a bedrock of truth.

>"How were women portrayed in the Bible? Well, let's see they were..."

mothers, sisters, daughters, queens, and women of great virtue.

>"The Vatican knows that these times are different from back then, but they refuse to buckle and change law. WHY?"

Lack of authority. As a former Catholic, you seem to have many misunderstandings about your former faith.

>"it means more people will leave the faith."

Fortunately, in spite of losses (such as yourself), the Church is coninuing its 2,000 years of growth. Last year it added 17 million new Catholics.

>"I find religion depressing. I'm an ex-Roman Catholic who found no god and no saviour."

Nonetheless, you remaina child of God with an imortal soul made in His image. God has a perfect plan of salvation tailored just for you.

I encourage you to give your faith a second look and ensure that you are against what it truely teaches and that you are not rebelling against what you mistakenly may think it teaches.
