Lutheran/Methodist to be exact. It started when I was playing the Protestant debating my Rad Trad Catholic friend.
I decided to see who was right rather than trying to disprove the Catholic faith. As they say, you can’t disprove a negative.
I’m the only Catholic in my entire family.

The transition must have been...um, painful to all.
And being the only Catholic, well,Christian holidays must have been trying at first.
I'm sure everyone has adjusted and you are now merely the odd ball, black sheep, gone rogue, crossed the Tiber and so on.
Especially the "so on." Those little crackers at communion are the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus? :o)

Must read: Crossing The Tiber by Steve Ray.

It took about a decade for them to adjust. I went East after college, which made them even more uncomfortable because they didn’t understand.

They remain strongly anti-Catholic, but we don’t discuss religion anymore.
