A quotation from Terry Pratchett
“Huh! Priests!” said Mr. Shoe. “They’re all the same. Always telling you that you’re going to live again after you’re dead, but you just try it and see the look on their faces!”
Terry Pratchett (1948-2015) English author
Reaper Man (1991)Sourcing, notes: wist.info/pratchett-terry/3198…

All terms are defined as their opposite like the Orwellian rewrite.
'Maturity' means not thinking for yourself. Maturity means infantalization so that you dutifully act against your best interests. If you do not obey patronizing experts and authorities, then you are immature even if their 'advice' and demands always do harm and never contribute to making improvements. They will anyway pay and F themselves for making your life worse and call their counterproductive devaluation at your expense 'hard working.' If you seek to innovate and increase your understanding beyond what the people who have more have decided is your inferior share, then you are called disobedient and immature. Your masters apportion your lot. If you refuse to except their insults, then you are deemed to be lowly refuse. Who elected them? Who made them king? What if you know enough to tell when the experts lie and that there must be a better way?

Mormons Call the Church President the Prophet But Haven’t Always. By elevating the status of the church president to that of a “Prophet,” the leadership strengthened its influence over all aspects of Mormon life, including political matters.

Recently it was discovered that a Methodist pastor was dealing meth. Now we can’t all be in the glamourous business of drug dealing, but here are some other things the religious might be a front for.
If you guessed that a yogi might be a gateway religious icon for yoga, you would be very right. The words are very similar for a reason and lends credence(creedence?) to the rest of our examples.
Have you ever thought that Presbyterians were a bit too nosy for their own good? Well, they might be a front for the press of the world. Always searching for that big scoop that will make a big name for themselves.
Many protestant clergymen are known as ministers. This word is also a verb as to minister to the sick. These twisted people might rejoice in giving service. That’s sick, itself, needing more ministering.
Lutherans could be a front for luthiers, you know, those who make and fix stringed instruments. So if you hear a hoedown coming from behind a Lutheran church, you know what is what.
Monks could be a front for Monkees lovers. They do their awesome chanting until no one is within earshot, then break into, “Hey, hey, we’re the Monkees, and people say we monkey around, but we’re too busy singing to put anybody down.”
The priesthood could mean any criminal priest. Maybe he sells meth like his methodist friend. Or perhaps he’s known for other crimes.
Rabbis could be a front for selling rabbits. Do you have a petting zoo? Go see the rabbi for your rabbits and other small, yet cute, mammal needs.
No matter how much you give to nuns, they are giving none away. After all, they are too busy being married to Jesus.
Anglicans may think they are a front for angels. But they are too busy eyeing the angles for their best advantage.

Chrysis, priestess of Athena, was the exception rather than the rule.
Notable Women in #AncientGreece: #Chrysis
Chrysis (ca. 200-101 BCE), a “priestess of #Athena Polias” (Connelly, 1), came from a prominent family in Greece. Athens “voted to grant her” (Connelly, 1) and all of her female descendants, “an impressive series of rights and privileges” (Connelly, 1).
Some of these privileges included “the right to consult the oracle, priority of trial, inviolability (asylia), freedom from taxes, a front seat at all competitions held by the city, the right to own land and houses, and all other honors customary for #proxenoi and benefactors of the city” (Connelly, 1).

Things weren't always so bad for women in #AncientGreece. In the #ArchaicAge, they had a little more freedom -- but not as much as women in nearby #Sparta or #Crete...
Women's Occupations in Ancient Greece
In the Archaic Age, young women “were apparently not kept in physical seclusion, and had a reasonable degree of movement” (Blundell, 69) but were still always accompanied by other women, and were #veiled.
As ancient Greece moved into the Athenian age, public institutions (with the exception of some religious ones), “were male-dominated and revolved around characteristically male activities – #politics, #warfare, #athletics and #drinking parties” (Blundell, 76).
The only choices women had were to be #enslaved, #married, become #hetaerae (#prostitutes), or hold “sacred service roles” [#priesthood] (Connelly, 31) – though most religious positions were hereditary or reserved for the wealthy.
But after that, women’s domain was pretty much limited to the household where “they were entirely responsible for the production of textiles” (Blundell, 71) and food preparation. The only time women could leave the home was to perform religious activities.
