I left the Catholic Church last year and became Presbyterian.

I was sick and tired of the Catholic Church's stance as anti-Iraq war even though hundreds of thousands of people will not die as a result of our intervention.

I was sick and tired of the Catholic Church ignoring the homosexuals in their midst (priests) who prey on young boys. It is not pedophilia, it is homosexual aggression gone rampant.

I was sick and tired of the Catholic Church giving an anullment to Edward Kennedy and turning a blind eye to his and other prominent Catholic politicians' indiscretions.

The Catholic Church needs to kick these Rats out of their church and refuse to give them communion. Tell them that they are not wanted. Tell Americans that if you support abortion, stem cell research, etc, you can not be a Catholic in good standing and receive communion.

When the Catholic Church grows some balls (instead of feeling them), I might return.

Stay where you are until you figure out what religion is about. Your bitterness and hatred would only poison the Church were you to rejoin now.

There have been many changes in the Catholic Church.

Maybe you need to re-investigate. And you are always welcome to return the the one, holy, catholic and apostolic church.

I bailed in the 1980s, when the Catholic clergy in El Salvador were arming and supporting Communist rebels, and teaching that Jesus Christ was the first Communist. "Liberation Theology" they called it.

It came to a head when the rebels killed a man I knew, and when "international opinion" condemned the El Sals' targeting of some of the Maryknolls who directly supported his murder. I was out of there.

Unfortunately I went to the Episcopalian church. Talk about bad judgment on my part! From a far-left church that promotes and defends closeted homosexuals, to a far-left church that celebrates open ones. Oh, brother.

Looking for a denomination, over here. I am A Man Without a Church.

Don't let the door hit you in your self-righteous ass. The Church does not exist to pamper your ego or ratify your agenda. Apostacy becomes you. I'm sure you'll be welcomed into the ranks of the Orangemen with open arms.
