What kind of "faithful believers" choose to cut and run when things feel distinctly dangerous? What kind of sons and daughters of Holy Mother the Church desert Her when the Enemy dares to attempt to rape Her? Do not leave the Church. This does not show fidelity, and I daresay it amounts to chickening out because things have turned deadly serious.
Re-dedicate yourself to your Baptismal promises ("Do yoou reject Satan?") Reclaim the power to fight back, the power to resist to the end, the graces of your Cionfirmationb.
Cut yourself off from the Church? Don't do it. The severed Hand cannot heal the Body.
My ancestors were Non-Conformists/Dissenters. I take after them. So I’m not a good person to answer that question, Mrs. D.
