:laugh: I dunno but I think in the least it gives two people a comfortable home (shared expenses and household duties)

IF there was no celibacy in the Catholic Church, there would be far less sex abuse in the Catholic Church! It isn't a natural human state. It's an unnatural denial of human nature!
I think love, companionship, marriage are different things.
Love is chemical. Companionship is logical. Marriage is delusional.
Yes! Not only should sex be allowed, but assaulting altar boys should be REQUIRED! XD
I don't think it's fair to single out the Catholic Church. I went to Catholic school and was never touched inappropriately yet my stepdad has many mental and physical scars from residential schools... molestation has nothing to do with abstaining and everything to do with a lack of control of a predatory nature.
I am laughing so hard RN
possibly an extension of government institution? ..... locking people in to the economy "provide for your family"?? random thought..
I agree with this!! Such a contradiction in society(advertising etc) too...no wonder people are so lost
With all due respect, you weren't a boy. I don't necessarily fault the church insomuch as I fault societal expectations. I think there were countless generations of gay Catholic men who were encouraged/forced to deny their own sexuality because it was sinful! I went to Catholic school too...our brother school was in Burnaby, & no more than THREE teachers there at the time had been shuffled out to BC after an abuse scandal at the orphanage where they all taught in Newfoundland. From the stories some of the STM boys of those days told, I have no doubt that those three lay brothers continued their predatory ways here until the Mount Cashel scandal broke & they were finally dismissed from their positions too. (Residential schools, many of which were run by the Anglican church, are a whole different level of wrong!) I don't fault Catholicism; I fault the denial of natural urges & instincts!
I agree, somewhat, but I was never tempted to victimize anybody while I abstained..... IMO regardless of who, what, when, where and the answer is in why.... it is lack of control
*edit* we're off topic.......
Heard this one straight from a priest:
What's the difference between a priest and acne?
Acne comes (cums) on your face after you're 12.

In general, I believe, before the government, the Catholic church was responsible for a lot of societies belief systems as it was in control of a lot of changes in our history and this is what we all historically adapted to (in North America, Europe and beyond) .....Marriage being an extension/example. Maybe, with government focusing the majority of their attention on forward moving economy, now, the unresolved belief systems, left to brew on the back burner are now spilling over. Just a thought I had...
you can't blame mom and dad forever, you have to take responsibility at some point
I'm curious, though, what does the Buddhist religion say about marriage?

When I was young and naïve I used to think like you. Then I got old and realized most men are dogshit. Me included.
