[quote=Anonymous]I was raised Catholic in a part of the U.S. where Catholicism is the dominant form of Christianity, and I can tell you for a fact that mainstream catechism in no way encourages congregants to pursue a life unattached to reality; indeed, most sane, run-of-the-mill U.S. Catholics give the church the proverbial middle finger when it comes to birth control precisely because they know that God *won't* provide if, a la Amy Coney Barrett or Rick Santorum, they breed like rabbits. So, OP, I agree with you that your son's inability to converse without mentioning religion, his lack of interest in pursuing a career (which need not be exploitative or overly concerned with materialism) and his aspirations toward sainthood are disturbing and, unfortunately, as many others have suggested, might be signs of mental illness.
