I think being sanctimonious and holier than thou is pretty obnoxious too.

luckily for these forums, that’s a unisex trait.

Since I’m talking about a general philosophy and not any individual cases, I do not believe that I’m being “holier than thou”. I really feel that I’m defending a viable Catholic viewpoint.

I do think you are lobbying a personal attack. I have never once said that I or anyone else is more saintly because they are a full time mother. I said that God calls us to care for the children he has given us–in the capacity of directly caring for them. If, we have the means to do so.

I guess one is not allowed to give an opinion that is not politically correct without being personally attacked.
 
…about the girl crush thing?..well… I imagine that sort of things been goin’ on for as long as there has been women…

give me a freakin break. Do you know what the word ‘dispassionate’ means?

Excuse me?

I’m using the word in the sense of not degenerating into emotional rants.

oh really. I was thinking a “dispassionate” arguement might be one that left out emotional barbs sort of like:

“angry screaming lesbian bra-burning ceremonies”

“Did she conconct some sort of fantasy world or what?”

“Also, YOU’RE WRONG”

“Look at the age you grew up in, the 6660’s”

“In fact, feminism isn’t really feminine at all. It seeks a conflation of the sexes whereby women are masculinized and men are feminized. It’s completely unnatural and I will oppose it till my dying breath.”

“the feminist cult”

“I will humbly accept this persecution. I find it funny that they claim to be the ones defending Christian values but they sure don’t talk like Christians”

Those don’t really meet my criteria for dispassionate and intelligent discussion. But of course you are allowed to be nasty within bounds on this forum, so long as you’re conservative.
 
I concede that I would find some of those phrases inflammatory. I withdraw my word dispassionate. 🙂

Why so much hostility in this particular thread towards this poster - she has said nothing to earn that disrespect.
 
seeing as she made a concession, i withdraw my previous complaints about said poster as well. i was being pretty obnoxious myself 😃

I chuckle when I read the term “angry feminist” and I’m immediately reminded of Jesus getting disgusted by the money changers in the Temple that he flies into a rage, overturning all the tables. He saw injustice and discrace, and he got ANGRY about it.

There’s a big difference between uncharitable rage and righteous indignation. The latter is virtuous while the former is… :rolleyes:
 
JMJ Theresa:
Just for clarification, in my posts I have spoke to women giving priority to taking care of children. If you do not have children or your children are grown–in that season of life–go out and change the world!!! That is our call, afterall. To win the world for Christ.

Yes. I would say the same concerning my posts as well. :yup:

rest assured whenever i get mad it’s “righteous indignation” but if someone disagrees with me, it’s obviously “uncharitable rage.”
 
JMJ Theresa:
I did not view your post as ribbing. I saw it as rude.

I don’t think rudeness is feminine. no.

So, it’s ok for men to be rude?

Maybe, that’s not what you meant to say, but I certianly thought it was at least implied. Sorry if I misjudged.

I get private messages from many posters who really appreciate my comments (A few people think I am really entertaining). And I am really glad to be able to say some of the things that others are often too afraid to say on CAF.

I love the humility here. “I get lots of messages saying how people appreciate my comments because they’re so outrageous!” That’s not something I’d want to be proud of. And although, I would not have otherwise brought it up, I’ve had a similar experience…but usually for different reasons.

Well, there are two topics on the table. One what is the calling of women and what does it mean to embrace one’s femininity. The other is whether, I and other posters have been rude and uncharitable. When you say that ribbing and rudeness is not feminine then you, set a different standard for women, which of course, makes me ask, is it okay for men to be rude?

I fully admit to being rude. However, I don’t think my gender should have anything to do with it.

It isnt’ really “okay” for anyone to be rude, but men have more of a tendency of doing it.

fine. for the record. It is not masculine to be rude.
 
ok, the Mom in me wants to step in here:

How 'bout everyone take a time out!

Then once we’re all calm, I’ll make everyone some hot chocolate and cookies! Unless of course you’ve given up chocolate for Lent…in that case I’ll just make a nice cuppa tea!

😃

I don’t see how pointing out that not everyone thinks I am foolish shows a lack of humility. And I never said, anyone appreciates my outrageousness.

I responded with hyperbole and sarcasm to what I thought was an outrageous claim on your part. I am sure you don’t understand what was so outrageous about what yyou said and therefore, don’t understand why I felt the need to ridicule. That’s okay. I accomplished the purpose I had in doing it. I had no hopes of changing your mind.
