women are not dirty in judaism - and neither is sex, as it is in christianity.
men are considered totally weak and helpless (as in islam) and so among the orthodox, the women cover because the men simply can't handle the sight of a woman.

this statement (about christians) reflects what i've always heard - that esp. paul felt that way. the body as dirty etc.
it may reflect my ignorance more than christianity. if so, i hope no one took offense. i admit, i don't know a whole lot about christianity (from my own research).
maybe a knowledgeable christian will know whether this is inaccurate.

Thanks for the link. The christian example seems invalid since it was in the old testament (prior to christ). I'll look at the link in more detail. I've honestly never heard a christian express that sexuality was dirty, or women filthy. I'm sure a few of them exist out there....

y cant christian priests marry?

orthodox priests can marry...roman catholic can't marry because the vatican ruled against it. it was mostly to do with preventing offspring of the priests from inheriting property. greed

roman catholic can't marry because:
"All the ordained ministers of the Latin Church, with the exception of permanent deacons, are normally chosen from among men of faith who live a celibate life and who intend to remain celibate "for the sake of the kingdom of heaven."70 Called to consecrate themselves with undivided heart to the Lord and to "the affairs of the Lord,"71 they give themselves entirely to God and to men. Celibacy is a sign of this new life to the service of which the Church's minister is consecrated; accepted with a joyous heart celibacy radiantly proclaims the Reign of God.72 "

Salaam,

Jew is a race not a religon.

Judasim is the religon of the natural jews.

But Islam is the reliogn for all of mankind.

"jew" is not a race. actually, "the jewish people" is concept similar to the "ummah" - jews come in all sizes and colours.

Don't be agree with that please. It happens everywhere. The parents want him to be a doctor or a priest; the obedient son accepts for their pleasure and from here upto disaster its not so big step.But the not proper behaviour of some priests should not be generalized to the whole curch.

I was joking. You speak the truth Mara. Still, I think Christians like sexuality. I've never understood muslim claims that they (christians) did not.
