George, I think Viviana has said enough about this topic, with whom I agree.
For some reason, you have an issue with the Roman Catholic Church as it stands today, with allegations of sexism and racism. FYI, there are as many people coming into the Roman Catholic Church as there are leaving it, precisely because it is standing firm to its teachings. I am a Catholic. That is what matters. I count not on the colour of my skin, but on the colour of my faith. As far as Man and Woman and the Religious are concerned, there are physiological *and* psychological differences. A pastoral nun fills in where a parish priest cannot fulfil his task because of his gender. And vice versa. Lay people assist where a religious would be out of his or her depth. I think I have said enough on this topic. Cheers, Gabriel. --- George Pinto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I don't know if you realize it but comments like > "mental, physiological makeup" are precisely the > sexist comments that people who believe women are > equal to men complain about.
