The idea that Jesus’ point was not to use the word “father” under any circumstances is fatuous.

Did I understand you correctly ?

Do you really believe that the Words of
Creator of the Universe is silly and pointless ?

silly, foolish, stupid, inane, idiotic, vacuous, asinine; pointless,
senseless, ridiculous, ludicrous, absurd; informal dumb, daft.
Do you come to that position as a former RCC "priest" ?

Is it the corporate position of the Roman "church" ?

No. I don't think the words of Jesus are fatuous, etc. I think your interpretation of them is fatuous and trivial. Jesus was telling us how to relate to God and to man. He was not telling us simply not to use a certain word. BTW: Have you plucked out your eyes and cut off your hands yet? No?

Don't you take the words of Jesus seriously?
