we've tried a million ways implicit and explicit, with policies and institutions and statements, to say this, but let's try it one more time: women don't count. their interests and abilities are fine for god in much the same way that a worm or dirt is, but women are only bodies to be manipulated objects for the carrying of children. NOT minds. no thinking. got it? and that applies to thinking about their bodies. don't do it. just hand them over for the glory of abstract thought. men are citizens and can be trusted. women are not and cannot. all the little things they add to the church are very sweet and valued as caring, but not really real, you know? we would say women are second-class citizens, but that's saying they're citizens! women are not citizens. they are brute matter. really important brute matter. and they should run their precious bodies into the ground for the great mind that is religion. that would be cool and then we will honor them. no property, no authority, no thinking, now THAT's holy. how many more times must we say it??
love,
the vatican.

No no no. Women's minds and bodies count only too much! This is why the vatican et. al. have spend thousands of years trying to subjugate the sacred feminine. Have you learned NOTHING?!?!
I wonder if it has anything to do with point one in the "Did you know....?" post of 7/3.
The church tolerates it's clergy when they focus their penis talk on prepubescent boys, not men.
You need to reread your Leviticus.
awesome.
