Remember, you can't spell "saint" without "aint".
"As regards the individual nature, woman is defective and misbegotten, for the active power of the male seed tends to the production of a perfect likeness in the masculine sex; while the production of a woman comes from defect in the active power...." Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica,Q92, art. 1, Reply Obj. 1
Yup, this is the kind of ignorant garbage I want to hold up as wisdom! Presumably, one of the three miracles that got him a sainthood was the report of some monks that claimed to see him levitating. I wonder why that doesn't happen so often anymore? Do you suppose that it was the 11th century canonical equivalent of a "gimmie" in golf?
