I left after the cover-up and protection of the sexual predators became obvious.

My parish was hit by that and so was my Dad's parish, both in the Diocese of Rochester. The priests in question didn't molest boys in our parishes, but had previously molested boys on other parishes and Bishop Clark assigned them to our parishes, both of whom have an abundance of children. Neither should have been around children ever again! I stayed on though until the last straw for me was our new pastor signed a petition to allow homosexuals to be admitted to seminaries.

I now consider myself to be a non-denominational Christian and two out of three of my adult children are as well by their choice. My youngest is an Evangelical Christian and he and his wife and my grandson attend a Baptist church. I have gone to church services with them.

“...I now consider myself to be a non-denominational Christian...”

Big mistake.

Overreaction is very common in a crisis. Protestants are a schism.

Look here before you jump, where the traditional Catholic faith is very actively practiced:

There are REAL Catholic opportunities available if you are willing to make real sacrifices to obtain.

God bless and aid you.
