I suppose a lot of Catholics can't understand anyone coming away from Catholicism

I suppose not. Such is life, as they say. Anyway, I was a pretty rough sinner, and I enjoyed sinning. A true man of the world was I.
I do remember, however, telling my science teacher nun, that I wanted to go to Heaven. She looked at me, and her facial expression told me, that the concept of Heaven was a total shock to her psyche. My opinion is, she didn't think anyone was going to Heaven, least of all, me.

Now, I don't like sin much, but there is one sin I enjoy committing, the sin of presumption, since I have assurance of salvation. If some people don't have it, that's on them.

...and I enjoyed sinning.

It worked; didn't it; for a while: "..the pleasures of sin for a season..."

It appears that many of our Catholic FRiends here feel the same way about us Prots.
