I hear this alot, Gee ya know my parish is so feminized. I do alot of traveling so I see many parishes, the one thing they have in common is that Catholic women run the whole thing. RCIA, all the lay committies and the men are just pew sitters. Why well the only thing I can think of is lazieness they would rather wath the game than participate in the life of the church. So I think they should either put up or shut up.

I read one post that all the problems in the U.S. is the blame of celebs. Maby that is part of it another would be that the U.S. is a spoiled country. Ive seen some third world country with my own eyes and some of our poorest have alot more than they. When I was 13 every summer I worked croping tobacco, by 15 every summer I worked as a laborer for watever construction firm my dad worked with at the time. 100 years ago children 13 and sometimes younger worked in factorys and coal mines and they talk about kids haveing too much stress today please. Education is important but if you dont teach responcibility with it well you end up with what I like to call an educated moron.
