I think the no relationships/no marriage thing limits priests. A lot of the priests in my church growing up seemed immature. One even said crude things constantly during sermons. He wasn't kicked out for that, he was just relocated to another parish. I think the Catholic Church loses the best and brightest talent with the celibacy/no family thing. My dad was a Catholic priest and left to start a family (and because of the sex abuse scandals). He was ten times better at giving sermons and life advice than any priest I interacted with growing up.

I don't know how they can be expected to advise their parishioners on the hardships and trials of life when they haven't raised a family, which is such a large part of the human experience. I think the church has had such big problems with sex abuse because they attract the wrong crowd with the celibacy thing, like pedophiles who want a direct line to lots of unsuspecting children and families.

I'm always so surprised to see that Gen Z isn't super liberal. I was born in 1998 so I guess I'm still a millenial and I'm a die hard democrat (as are most of the people I know who are also my age). I expected Gen Z to be the same.

What kind of things do you do to promote your store/art if you don't mind me asking (besides this AMA)? Do you use ads to funnel traffic to your website? I've wanted to sell prints online but just don't really know how to go about it. Any tips?
