I enjoy joking with you, but seriously I wonder what did you major in? I'm guessing something to do with writing. You have a flair.
Lol, I'm pretty sure you're being sarcastic because my writing sucks.

I actually went to nursing school. I finished it for the sake of education but hated it and never used it. I guess I'm just not a career women.

I fear that getting you to believe it is a real thing is part of the placation itself. I just feel sad to see what is blatant sexism in my eyes being justified by intangible phrases which undoubtedly came from those same males in charge.
I can't deny it; I think religion is one big con. But I respect that from your perspective, it's very real.
If you're prepared to watch some heathen TV, one of my favourite guys Don Baker does a great piece here explaining the sorts of reasons I have to think it is a con. Move to 4:00 in the video.

I respect your views. I will take a look!

You keep contradicting yourself. Now you say women can be spiritual teachers, so your argument is even more bullshit. What is the reason women can't be priests and popes if they can be spiritual teachers and don't have the ability to give physical life on their own?
I don't like repeating myself. if you don't want to talk to me, say so and I'll stop wasting my time.
eta: saw your edit. Why can't women perform sacraments?
My bold.
Good, I'm glad I cleared that part up for you.
We don't know why, exactly. We just believe that for whatever reason, God gave that ability only to men. Just like He gave the ability to carry life and give birth, only to women. For whatever reason, He just thought it would be best that way and that is how He designed it to be. Though we don't know why He chose women to give birth and men to give sacraments, we do understand that there is some balance to giving one very important role to one, and another very important role to the other.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
