Sorry that happened for you. You are generalizing, and I believe you know that.

The Catholic Church is not perverse and corrupt as you say.

The sexual misdeeds happen in every religion and in fact, are much less among priests that among teachers and Protestant ministers. Actually fathers are the worst.

I don’t know who fed you this line of lies or if you read a comic book or something, but you can always come back to the church.

You are in my prayers.

I am not generalizing.

My experiences are the sum of a lifetime in that church. That lifetime has been spent in many places, as my former military life involved a great deal of moving around our great nation. This gave me a broad view of the catholic church in America. In looking back, I see that the catholic church’s corruption and perversion of Christianity was widespread and institutional. I’m happier now and I’ve repented for my misguided faith in an institution of man (as opposed to God).

Nobody needs a comic book to learn the truth. There’s no way I will ever return to that organization.

Good luck to you.
