I just wanted to thank all those who tried to help me return to the Church. Call me a quitter, but even Fr. Vincent from this website never called me back when I was instructed by staff to call him. He said he’d “look into” my situation, but I never heard from him again. He sounded busy, anyway.
Besides, nobody likes a whiner. I just can’t seem to get past the pain the Church’s “minions” have caused me. Mea culpa, Crusader, Anna and the rest whom I found to be a bit harsh…the Church really DOES owe me nothing…not kindness, not security, not community.
I can seek God at home, without all the pain being inflicted on me. Now my ex-pastor is telling my 9 year old daughter’s FRIENDS that he threw me out of his parishes because he “doesn’t like me anymore” and he thought I “needed to stay away from him for awhile”. My daughter still insists on going to CCD at his parish, but if he hurts her, I’ll pull her out.
But thanks for trying to help. Maybe I can just have community here, as a lurker and survivor, not a victim.
