I'm not Catholic, but I'm Christian. One of my good friends is Catholic though. I don't think you can judge an entire religion by the actions of a handful of people...although those actions were very wrong....it can't speak for everyone in that church....

I believe in my church and everything, but I haven't been in umm...at least 3 years. Some of the people there just drive me mad. They judge you for every little thing, and think they are perfect. I hate "fake" people. I know whenever they'd try to get me to come, they were just doing it to get "brownie points" not because they really wanted me to come or cared about me. I really would like to start going again, maybe to a Singles Ward or something...everyone around here thinks I'm evil. And after not going for so long, it's really hard to get myself to go. I can't even imagine the comments I would get from people if they saw me there. Ugh.
