[quote=Anonymous]There is comfort in belonging to something bigger than yourself that transcends place, race, class, and time. I'm Catholic. My ancestors have all been Catholic going back at least 1400 years. I marked the same milestones in life that they all did. We share the same rough beliefs. There are over 1 billion other Catholics on the planet. They, too, mark the same milestones. We share the same rough beliefs. For all its (many) faults, the Catholic Church is by far the largest provider of charity in the world. If I were starting from a clean slate, I might be Episcopalian or something similar. But I don't start from a clean slate, and I value tradition and history. I'm also a big institutionalist and believe in the great power of institutions and the power of people to change institutions for the better, albeit very slowly. The Catholic Church is the world's biggest institution.[/quote]
