It’s them telling us what they believe! FYI, Myself and others here were part of the RCC at one time.

If the beam is so easy to find, did you find it? I found Jesus, The Rock!

Ah, a former Catholic. How well did you know what the Church teaches?

I don't want to speculate about anyone’s particular circumstances or reasons, and I don't direct this to you or any other former Catholic on this thread, but I have noticed that the most virulent anti-Catholics are former Catholics.

I remember a radio talk show host in the early 80’s who was always disparaging the Catholic Church- as a former Catholic. It always struck me as strange; if you don't believe something, you pretty much ignore it; you don't hate it, unless there is another reason.

In the talk show host's case, he “came out of the closet” a couple of years after that, and it all made sense to me; he hated the Church because of what it teaches about his lifestyle.

I've known others who left the Church, usually for some particular pet sin, usually sexual.

Again, not directing this at anybody in particular (judge not and all that), but just making an observation in general.

Oh, and that beam- yes, it's easy to find; removing it is the hard part!
