The priests do that but it hasn’t worked out so good for some boys.

Sick and unnatural. Jesus never commanded this, thats a Paul thing.

Hasn’t worked out so well for girls, either. They’re not all “homos”.

Good for them. But I had no idea there was such a thing outside taking nun’s vows.

Alot better than all the endless sinfulness of sexual obsession as in our society now that leads to very unhappy children.

This may be a positive choice for some women.

If it’s someone’s free choice, so be it. Marriage and relationships take work, absorb a lot of time and energy. If they don’t want that, then so be it.

“Sick and unnatural.”
Jesus would recommend something sick and unnatural?
Matthew 19:12.
“Jesus never commanded this, thats a Paul thing.
No, that’s a Jesus thing. Again, Matthew 19:12. And the women following Jesus’ recommendation are doing it voluntarily. Get a clue.

I think my wife missed her calling.

Shouldn’t this be in the “Religion” forum rather than “News Activism”??

Was going to post that verse. Not many folks read nor use Mt19:12 as a teaching. They sort of glaze over it but Jesus taught it. Not for everyone but some women and men do appear to do better being single and asexual.

I think my wife missed her calling. Happens a lot. A while after marriage, women swear being celebate is in the marriage vows. Men sigh...

Fifty-five years ago I worked with a girl whose father delivered heating oil somewhere in Massachusetts. She told me that one of his customers was an orphanage for children of nuns and priests.
