"Then what, exactly, does the priest DO at the altar?"

As a professed ex-Catholic you should already know this. If you don't then your rejection of Catholicism was based upon your own ignorance and not on any shortcomings of the Church.

Excellent point. This brings us back to Fulton Sheen's statement that there are many who hate what they believe the Church is; there are very few who actually hate what the Church is. Misunderstandings abound; if one leaves the Church because they don't understand it, does that actually make them culpable? Or are they the seeds strewn on the path?
