Religious institutions force something on mere human beings they can't handle - being isolated, being literally given 'godly' powers (they must feel untouchable), going without human touch/sex. I'm not religious, I'm fine if anyone chooses to be, but I actively hate the constructs and power built around religion. Lot of victims there :-/ Just glad that even though there were 2 of these men known by you and your family no-one became a victim in that sense.

Yes...here in Ireland, a family's eldest son would be made to become a priest, whether he liked it or not. As for nuns, one of the girls would have the honor, both would bring honor to the family. So you can imagine how this turns out for those who wouldn't choose the profession otherwise. It's a terrible thing and it's slavery in a way. Some of these were just completely fucked in the head, with people above them also completely fucked in the head. That's not a good place to be...
So sad.

I agree with you 100%. I personally do not understand the logic behind telling these men that they cannot have a normal relationship. I’m not saying that would solve the problem but I bet it would be a start. The isolation aspect of not allowing a human being to partake in a normal loving and fealty relationship with another is perhaps something that leads to things like this happening?!? I dunno. I’m with ya though.
