As you know, Catholics follow the Apostles in calling our priests and spiritual fathers as “Fathers”.

As we all know, Catholics disobey the clear, concise, unequivocal command of Jesus to NOT use the title of “Father” for religious leaders.

Your comment” As we all know, Catholics disobey the clear, concise, unequivocal command of Jesus to NOT use the title of “Father” for religious leaders.”

This is just your personal false opinion that shows your opposition to the Catholic faith which you abandoned.

Even the apostles in the Bible called priests “ Father” as spiritual fathers. Luke 16:24; James 2:21; Romans 4:1-18; 1John 2:3-14.

Jesus emphasizes the sin of pride among the scribes and Pharisees.

Have you ever considered whether you are “in uttering against God - inwardly or outwardly - words of hatred, reproach or defiance”?
