Another reason to abandon the abrahamic religions

RE: Another reason to abandon the abrahamic religions
Well if they're going to claim that women are evil, and want to take a job that demands celibacy, then they won't need that pesky testosterone, will they?

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.

RE: Another reason to abandon the abrahamic religions
Actually, it's a horrible vicious circle. I'm going to play the devil's advocate here and point out that the ass-raping holy man probably got the same treatment as a child and has probably suffered for it too, especially since it made him so twisted as to do it to another. Now, I do not in any way condone behaviour that hurt others just because you have suffered too, but I think it's wise to keep in mind that there are many generations who need help with dealing with child rape, not just the youngest one.

But I think I cannot stress enough how nauseous and infuriated this makes me.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

And what if they later leave the priesthood? What are you gonna do, gaffa tape their balls back on?

Best not leave then. I'd rather see priests leave and regret it, than priests sodomizing boys because they can't keep it in their pants.
