i'm quite the opposite. I grew up wanting to be Catholic. I had a great aunt who married into the Bruno family. She was my grandfather's baby sister, so her children were older than me by 15-5 years. I watched all of them get confirmed, and be married in the Catholic church. I thought it was lovely and beautiful.

But after I became a believer in jesus Christ, I started reading and understanding the Bible.

What kind of a crummy, lazy Catholic were you that you didn't start reading the Bible until after you left the faith!?!?

Ever notice that a lot of anti-Catholics that were once Catholic didn't do squat with their faith? But hey, they liked the lovely and beautiful candles and incense.

I never was a Catholic. My proximity to the Catholic church came through my aunt and her children. Hence the reason I said I thought it was a beautiful religion until I grew up and started reading the Bible and comparing what Scripture says to what the RCC teaches.
