Original sin, the sin of omission (doing nothing) purgatory and limbo sounded like a load of made-up rubbish and it turned out that it was. At the moment Anglican Bishops are fleeing their church to protest at women being made Bishops, just like them. They are married and the Catholic Church sees no problem with ordaining these men as Catholic Priests! Hoping to attract as many misogynists and bigots as possible to their ranks so they can maintain their own sense of self-rightousness. Two wrongs still don't make a right...and so human insanity goes on, dressed up as organised religion. Millions of women within organised religion agree with women being treated this way, and so the view of women as less or other is perpetuated, not just by men...but by women. The same madness that 'invented' limbo for unbaptised babies legislates against women, I have two daughters and it makes me sick that they will be exposed to the same hateful, anti-women rubbish that I absorbed all my life and society as a whole is still predominantly anti-women. Whom does this hate ultimately serve? 'Great' Civilizations were built on the backs of slaves, the roman and Egyptian empires to name two obvious ones. Our great Western Civilisation is built on the backs of the vulnerable, the poor and still the old favourite. Women. God help us.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
