Thank you, I was looking for that pontifical council statement as thus issue has come up before (indeed comes up regularly), but couldnt find it.

You’re entitled to your opinion, but it’s not fair for you to spew it as fact. I’m sure there are people who disagree with me, and there are people who agree, too. And like I said earlier, that’s okay.

One thing I know for sure, is that I’m not going to hell for worshiping God with a worship song that kinda sounds poppy. And you’re not going to hell for worshiping God with a Gregorian chant, or an old hymn. That’s okay, worship God in whatever way you see fit.

Just curious, have you done much reading or study about the liturgy, history of the liturgy, and liturgical music?
 
I have already stated they are equal in a certain sense. But does this does not mean men and women aren’t different. They should play different roles in family life.
 
Does all this talk about equality, husband / wife and the graces that each may have, belong on its own thread? Instead of the contemporary music thread?
 
Stating my age is not an argument. Please refrain from doing so in the future.
 
That doesn’t mean the term “equal pay” is not used to justify what I have already stated.
 
Different roles maybe, setting one or the other up as an authority over the other one and claiming the prayers of the authority carry more weight before the Almighty, not so much.

Edited to add, and with respect to roles, there’s quite a bit of leeway for each couple to decide what those should be, as I believe the Pope suggested in Amoris Laetitia.

Are you denying the truth found in sacred scripture?

“Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord.” - Ephesians 5:22

The constant teaching of the Church is the husband is the head and this means authority. The weight of prayers is based on authority. It is the same as both parents having more powerful prayers for their children due to their authority. Or a pastor having more powerful prayers over his flock.

LOL stating your age is very relevant to the naivety which you are bringing to this situation. If you were 30 your attitude would be abhorrent but it is forgivable but because you are a teenage child.

“Equal Pay” has on occasion been used poorly but the fact remains that equal pay is key.

Also, the church has NEVER held up the doctrine of the SAHM. In fact, of late it has elevated saints like Bl. Chiara and St. Giana who were doctors and Mothers. St. Theresa’s mom worked for her family. The Bible’s “woman of great value” is a woman who has children and works. To declare that the Church–in any way–indcates a woman should not be working is folly. The primary duty of BOTH parents is to raise their children. How that works for an individual family is up to them.
 
I have noticed two contradictory arguments made for organ and chant. On one hand, I have seen it is not about the performance and liking the music. Then I have seen, even in the same thread about how organ and chant are beautiful. So just to be clear, if one speaks about the music being “good”, it is hypocritical to denigrate liking music for being “good”.
 
I’m tired of this politically correct bollocks. Men and women are equal inside the sacrament of marriage. However, they are not the same. I have more testosterone than females. My brain is wired differently to females. We are suited to different roles in the raising of children. This is the continuous, infallible teaching of the church. To deny it is heresy.

No.

Just NO.

There are MANY saints that were Work out of the home moms.

The Bible prizes the woman of great value–a work out of the home mom.

There is NO doctrine of the “stay at home mom” and no teaching that indicates that women should stay at home.
 
Please tell me, where have I said that a woman should not work? Please quote me. This is a challenge.
