I have some thoughts about catholicicm. When I compare our beautiful faith with other religions, I find it more sensual than the others. Take for example Mary Magdelene, She has been loving Christ so much, I do not believe that she really loved him romantically, however he was the one who changed her life, who loved her like no one did before and maybe there was even a touch of sensuality.
I believe women are somehow priviledged, not because we are able to love Christ more, but in some way our relationship to Christ is different because we are of the opposite sexe. Some people are even callen to become a religious sister and to mary Christ.
Then, we have the priest who lives in chasity but on the same time is commited to the whole church, who is like a father and who knows the most intimate things of it’s confessors.
This is not really a question, I just would like to know what you think about my philosophycal thoughts. Do they make sense?
 
I think that, instead of sensual, which relates strictly to the physical senses, you might actually mean spiritual. The differing sense of love also apply. Here is a link to Love in the Catholic encyclopedia. Have a look and see which you are speaking of.
