✨Just some thoughts, idunno…

The world is so messed up (has yet to sustainably organize itself well enough in most places), and back in the day, it was so extremely existentially dangerous.
Today, many of us are much safer in the world, and we have lots of math and science that gives more information about the world and seems to explain many things very well. Archeology included, etc. etc.
Imho, in my limited experiences…
Catholicism (all else being equal) is a beautiful social system for many reasons.
One of the things I deeply love and appreciate about Catholicism is how the organization provided lots of refuge (or avenues of escape from danger) for women. This was quite uncommon back in the day.
It is oftentimes still seen now in modern times as uncool to care about providing safety explicitly for women.
But women & girls continue to need special protections in the world. It is not very safe for us.
It is also true that Catholicism represents women in a principled and paramount manner, because of the Holy Mother, Mary. So, Catholicism is also spiritually comforting and uplifting for women. This is highly beneficial for the makings of beautiful societies. Proper reverence of women is good spiritually and practically in a profoundly awesome way.
There are many social systems, societies or cultures that respect women as they should be respected, and maybe there are circles where women are just as free as men. Every lady would like to be free just as anyone would.
