And do you not think she can defend herself? I guess she's just incapable of doing so because she's a woman, right?
Not at all. But I do want to apologize, I was kinda pissed and because of that I misinterpreted either the situation or what you said.

So, just to put me on a side, I don't feel that the Catholic church oppresses women. I feel that, just as you were given the job of a moderator, God gave men the job of priesthood. We have certain roles that we must play in life. The only real reason why people seem to think that a man doesn't necessarily have to work the field and that a women doesn't have to be a housewife, is because no one wants to fill those roles. No one wants to be told what to do, because "we're in control of our own lives." Which is fine and dandy if we're all alone and we evolved from nothing. But, given that the people of the Christian faith believe in God, that they believe in obedience to God's laws, they wish to be obedient and the wish to serve.

Everyone wants to lead their own life, and some aren't cut out for servitude, yet others love that calling and enjoy it. Given that they believe and most likely enjoy their faith, the have no problem fulfilling those roles.

I hope this is a better post than before, and I hope it can further the discussion.
