[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I consider myself a liberal Catholic. I have drifted many times, but I keep coming back as it connects me to my parents (and grandparents, and great-grandparents, etc., etc.) It is the church where I feel most at home. I struggle terribly with showing up despite the abuse scandal. I feel gratified by the real conversations I've had with priests who are trying to build a better institution. I don't fully know what to do, but I am willing to put in some time to figure it out. [/quote] Same. I can't leave, but had I not been born Catholic I know I wouldn't have converted. I often describe myself as hanging on by my fingernails - mostly because I don't want to leave the church to the crazies. I want to stay and work from within on change. [/quote] I hope you don't have kids that you're raising Catholic. It would be awful for them to suffer as you have.[/quote]
