FIRST POL-AM CATHOLIC (?) PRIESTESS [72]
Men can only appoint men, like the apostles were all men, they can only name similar male successors.
Well that
is the bit that is not clear.
The question is why can't women become priests and the answer given is because men appoint men so the question goes unanswered, no?.
It makes no sence to me but as I said before none of it does, is this were the trick of faith comes in?, that we are just supposed to take it for granted and blindly follow with the very vaguest of understandings?.
I remember hearing about the Eve being "unclean" story, but dont recall if that was a story for kids to make religion simpler, or true basis.
That by any standards, is a terrible thing to teach a child.
I believe that most atheists are that way because they are too lazy to follow a religion, and its easier to follow no rules. Or perhaps they seak to show off something, like they are unique. SeanBM I hope you know this isnt an attack at you, I'm just speaking in general on my view of atheists.
I do not see it as an attack at all, thank you.
But I can tell you 100% that
a) It is much harder to be an Athiest in Poland (or Ireland when I was growing up) than to just blindly follow the religian of your parents because they were born in a specific place and time.
b) I do follow rules, moral rules but morals do not come from any Bible, as the example of children being told that Eve was "unclean" points out.
I personally think that it is far too easy to blindly follow the religion of your birthplace and time.
In fact the whole idea of blindly following anything is beyond me, religion asks not to be questioned, that it is God's will but that is just blowing smoke.
And Krakowianka, I am not attacking you and I promise not to give any kind of abuse on this matter, if you or anyone else wishes to continue this subject.
Some of what I say may be shocking depending on your programming but the long and the short of it is this " There is
no God, no consciousness that has a divine plan and looks at you as a sinner or a saint, there is no great creator or Architect."
The reality is far more beautiful and uplifting than anything that could be attributed to a God, using reason logical scientific method is the true way we can "step out of the cave of darkness".
