“If men pride themselves on the fact that Jesus Christ was born of their sex, the answer is that this was necessary for the sake of decency, for if he had been a woman, it would have been impossible for Jesus to go out at all hours of the day and the night and mingle with the crowds to convert them and to help and save mankind, without creating a scandal.” IfsMenHas BeensFactsHelpingNightJesusSexChristBornHoursAnswersImpossibleMankindPrideCreatingJesus ChristSakeCrowdsScandalDecency Author:Marie de Gournay

“My dad and mom were more like World War II-era parents, even though it was the 1960s, because they were both born in the '40s. They were young adults before the '60s even happened, and married, and already having kids.
