[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was raised very catholic and I’m not a practicing catholic as an adult. If I attend a wedding or funeral or some special situation where there is a mass, I receive communion. I do not believe that a priest is any different than any mortal man. My faith is strong, I pray the rosary daily and have a close and intimate relationship with God. 
I also know people who have been sexually abused by priests. I feel the Catholic Church turned its back on humanity by the way they handled what they knew to be true. 
It really doesn’t matter what anyone thinks.

If a priest is “[no] different than any [other] mortal man,” how does the Eucharist get confected or sins get forgiven, or do you not believe in those Sacraments either?[/quote]

Exactly. Don’t believe in those sacraments either. 
I was raised with all the rules and don’t think I need rules or an intermediary to get in the way of my relationship with God. 
If I’m wearing a nice outfit I’m all about parading around. I also get to see what others are looking like.  In my world this is what it means to be catholic and I attended 100% catholic schools.  [/quote]
