You are a Catholic. What happened to you?

Didn’t you used to do the Knights of Columbus ping list too?

Please explain.....and don’t give me the “born again” stuff, because you were born unto Christ when you were baptized in the Catholic Church.

‘You are a Catholic. What happened to you?’

He was posting from a pro-Catholic viewpoint until June, 2009, then wrote a post in July, 2009 about how the Church was driving people away. In August, 2009 he started posting anti-Catholic comments. Also last summer he started making virulently anti-Palin posts.

I don’t visit this website very often, so pardon the delayed response.

What happened? I was able to see just how perverse and corrupt the catholic church can be. Specifically, I witnessed the abusive behavior of a local priest during my wife’s attempt to be confirmed in her late thirties. During confession, he wouldn’t settle for what she confessed - instead pressing forward with accusations of abortions and sexual perversion - demanding she confess to things she hadn’t even heard of, let alone done. This got me to begin questioning the validity of confessing to a sick old perverted man. It also began my journey of discovering just how wrong nearly all of the teachings of the catholic church are. It isnt much better than Mormonism. I am happily attending a Christian church now and feel ashamed for wasting so many years and dollars on the catholic church and silly clubs like the knights of drinking heavily after meetings...err...Columbus.

As for “virulent” anti Palin posts, I do not respect the former governor and stated as much. I will leave it at that.
