Simple question?

I doubt you have ever really met a nun much less experienced the selfless care and love they provide for so many.

Nuns 'abused hundreds of children'

Former residents of the Catholic Nazareth order's homes say they suffered appalling, systematic cruelty. Special investigation by Barry Wood

I could post scores of articles
about the cruelty of nuns. You
would just pooh pooh them
as not fitting your rosy colored
view of anything connected to
your awful Church.

Take extremely sexually unsatisfied
women and put them in charge of
innocent kids in schools and orphanages,
and you'll have the perfect place
for them to vent their frustrations.


Why are Catholic Nuns so mean?

https://www.unexplained-mysteries.com/forum/topic/199186-why-are-catholic-nuns-so-mean/
One of the questions I have is for the Catholics of the forums. Why are Nuns so mean? My grandmother, aunts, uncles, great aunts and uncles cousins ect ect, were mostly raised in the Cotholic Missions on different Indian Reservations. The one thing that I have found from talking to them and from past stories they have told me before they died was the Nuns of the Catholic Missions were always mean and abusive to the children.

And I could post millions of articles and stories about the great love of nuns. You would just pooh pooh them as not fitting your distorted and prejudiced view of the Church. My only consolation with your posts lately is that you have completely changed your mind about the importance of personal testimony and witnesses to get at the truth. Now maybe you will reexamine your take on God, but I wont be holding my breath.

There should be zero stories on the
meanness and the heartlessness of
nuns towards children. But the stories
are almost legion there are so many
of them. Sexually repressed women
seem to get great delight from torturing
children. Ask anybody who went to a
Catholic School. They all have tons of
stories of how mean the nuns were.

A child in a Catholic orphanage could be
put into a loving same sex family household
rather than be brought up by repressed and
bitter nuns. How could you possibly say that's
a better choice. You don't care about what's
right for the kid, you only care about your
Church's political correctness.

I talk with people all the time who have nun stories and they are mostly positive and lovely. Yes, there should be zero stories of meanness and heartlessness regardless and yet here we are. It looks like your understanding of sin is improving as well.

Did you not read my earlier post? The goal is not to place children in convents or same sex family households. There is no shortage of men and women in loving relationships that want to have children. Do you think it is wrong for the Church to have the freedom to place children in these homes first?

Do you think it is wrong for the Church to have the freedom discriminate against same sex couples when placing children in these homes?

There, I fixed that for you.

It is not discrimination to want to place a child in a loving home with a mom and a dad before wanting to place them anywhere else.

That's what they said to Black
people in Vegas in the early
60's. It's not discrimination
that no Black's are allowed
to stay in Strip casinos, it's
just policy. Shrug.

You keep telling yourself it's
not discrimination against
same sex couples, maybe
some day you'll actually believe
it. Just like you believe the
Inquisitions were 'no big deal',
the Church never condoned
the forced conversion of Jews.

You are not thinking right here. It is discrimination because there is no reason to deny anything to anyone based on the color of their skin. All men and women regardless of skin color are equal. There are important differences though between genders. Surely you understand that men and women provide very different and complementary gifts in the bringing up of children. If you really thought about it for a second I'm sure you will be a little embarrassed by your analogy here, i know you know better though and just got caught up in the heat of the moment.

Then again I could be wrong, you might actually believe there is no difference between men and women and that gender is no more significant than skin color? Do you believe that?

Do you really think I would ever say the Inquisitions were 'no big deal'? You really are maddeningly stubborn and just trolling if you do. They are a huge deal. Are they the historical myths you and Monty Python propose, absolutely not. There is a lot of room between not an anti-Catholic myth and 'no big deal'. Again I am sure you are embarrassed by the insinuation once you think about it.

Just like there's no reason to
deny Gay people adoption
rights. And most places don't,
they see Gay's as just valid
as straight couples in the
raising of a child. It's the
Church with it's backward
and discriminatory attitude
that's the problem.

How many times have you
said, oh, the Inquisitions
weren't nearly as bad as
historians make them out
be. Then you'll excoriate me
on how bad my sources about
the Inquisition are.
