I was expecting that they shoved the cross literally up their rectum.

the last thing women need to convince the church that they're able to take up the priest mantle with the responsibility that comes with it, is a bunch of crazy women shoving crosses up their asses[/QUOTE]
Or it could be about controlling women's bodies and condemning millions of Africans to die horrible deaths due to "religious objections to all forms of contraception". First world nations are able to laugh that off but we've given the Catholic church the responsibility of supporting third world countries where sexually transmitted diseases are rampant. They are not fulfilling that obligation of protecting people due to "God says sex is only for procreation".
Also it's time the church allows nuns and priests to marry. Everyone knows it's just because the Catholic church doesn't want to raise families.

not if it is a dildo crucifix
[QUOTE=junker154;46508512]It's probably related to the fact that the church can influence politics and governments around the world, in the ideal case the church should remain neutral and not participate in political topics.[/QUOTE]
Why? Many political topics are also moral topics, so of course the religious are going to want guidance from their church in such matters.

Why chant that? Even the Pope himself said that god isn't a magician. :v:
Shouldn't they call themselves Femyn?
Femenists doing what they are best at, being batshit insane.
I am pretty sure there's already ton of porn with that kind of a deal. Not very original of them.

these aren't real feminists

While I disagree with what Fatfat has to say as a small minority shouldn't paint the entire movement, what you just said was a textbook [URL="http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/No_True_Scotsman"]No True Scotsman.[/URL]

a lot of it italian and involving nuns, coincidentally
Femen is run by a man who hires attractive women to do this kind of shit IIRC.

he said femenists, not feminists, so i assume he meant people who are a part of femen

Plus these guys are still feminists anyway. One of the more extremist sects sure, so few people actually associate with them. But fuck can they get media attention, something most other feminists just cannot do.

the news media (and in many cases the general public) isn't interested in concerted academic arguments regarding gender roles and gender inequality.
the news media is interested in people throwing their tits to the wind and fucking crosses in front of the seat of the catholic church.
because, naturally, it's more eye-catching. but femen doesn't make very clear what it actually stands for, more just what it stands against, and that hurts them more than anything.
And then they whine when I ask about anal....

don't put the semen in the femen
I couldnt imagine how some of the woman felt when this plan was made..
"Then we are gonna show crosses up our arse!"
"Yeah! Thatll show'em.... wait what!?"
They need to tone it down. Instead of drawing attention to their cause and spreading feminism, they're just making themselves look like degenerates and hurting women everywhere

I can't think of a better way to prove that you're ready to be a priest than acts of sexual deviancy
"God is not a magician"
I wasn't aware that was an issue. Thanks for clearing that up.
[QUOTE=ilikecorn;46508134]Wow. It's like they don't get the whole "turn the other cheek" thing. It's like they don't realize that christianity is based around love for your fellow man. Far too many people get hung up on the whole "don't do x cause it's evil" thing, and take it too far to a series of hatrids.[/QUOTE]
I dunno, it seems after a fashion, they did turn the other cheek, just not the cheek usually turned.
