[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think going to Catholic school is a large part of why my Dad's not just lapsed, but actively hates the church. He said the nuns regularly hit them.[/quote] How old is your father? The public school kids around me were still regularly getting whaled on with a wooden paddle long after the local nuns put away their flyswatters. What people who “hate the Church” usually actually hate is the guilt and shame they feel from something they do or have done that they know is wrong but want to continue instead of seeking forgiveness and a change of life. There are people who received a very distorted guilt and shame based religious formation (and not just in the Catholic Church) that left them wounded and without any understanding of divine mercy.
