I'm utterly shocked how many women hold to the Marxian view that men and women can be equal and the same, considering all of my downvotes. We need more children this day and age, and it seems these women would rather have the "good life." So much for "Traditional" Catholics.

Actually though everyone thinks they have the "freedom" and "individualism" to do what they want these days, so no surprise.

Not every person is meant to go to college. The value of a degree has been cheapened by people who have no business being there other than an extended adolescence. Those individuals are best suited to vocational training. God gave everyone a skill to survive. It's up to us to figure it out and develop it in whatever way necessary.

No, it's not up to us to "figure it out and develop it in whatever way necessary". We should pray for God's Will, and any woman intending to marry who prays for God's Will knows that her role is always in the home. This is what the Council of Trent, Pope Pius XI, and Pope Pius XII have ALL said, and you have Bishop Williamson backing up our statement about college. You won't be able to find any Church teachings that support the concept that it's ok for women to go to college or work outside the home if they desire. Feminism is built upon the woman's material desires, when what she should desire is the best for her children, and to please God.

Is there anyone who wishes to debate the points made by Bishop Williamson?

No, because he's right as usual.

And don't miss do read all his letters. They're golden words.

It's really a privilege to be down-voted for defending Bishop Williamson's words.
And I'm used to that from my rotten Europe. :-)

God save the good Bishop!

SouthernBelle, as a lowly peasant barmaid on a short break to pump milk for my daughter, I don't have time to respond to your comments in the detail. However I would like to at least tell you that the tone of your post is a bit arrogant and fairly condescending. I admit, I have a poor understanding of the role of class distinction in society. Despite this, I do know that our Lord speaks to the level of difficulty involved with the rich getting to heaven. Because of this, I feel it is might prove to be a blessing that I am poor, as I face enough obstacles to reaching eternal salvation.

God Bless.

PW don't fret. I am also a working-class man doing a night job, looking for a second job soon. What really irritates me about our college educated, men and women, is they look down on those without degrees and have a contempt for those working-class folks with their over-educated, elitist ideals.

I thank God I'm not like them reading books all day, but instead doing manual labor.

Thank you. I just have moments of exhaustion when I curse my financial status. Not because I desire material things, but just so I know I can pay my rent. Then the Lord finds a good way to remind me that my cross serves a purpose, and we are all blessed in different ways. Lack of money is not the reason I struggle.

Be proud of your occupation.

BTW, have you ever thought about putting this on T-shirt?

Well maybe I am a patriarchal sexist but in my household my wife and children would abide by MY rules and thinking, not hers.

Just kidding! LOL...too much coffee today!
