Yes, men are needed to impregnate a woman. But I'm not talking about the "impregnating" part of it. I'm talking about carrying life and giving birth. Which are immensely powerful and important things that only women can do.
great. but she can't carry life without getting pregnant first, whereas women are of no need to the man who becomes a priest. in fact, most are celibate.
Quote:I believe it does have reason. God gave one very important role to one gender, and another very important role to the other gender. I don't know why He chose women for the birth one, and men for the sacrament one, but to me that part is not important.
but you can't say what that reason is. so how can you tell this is what god intended and not just what men in power intended?
