I was recently sexually harassed by a guy I knew from Church. We had been friends for two years so I didn’t expect it at all. I told his friends about it who were supposed Catholics and two of them told me I’m an unpleasant person to be around and to stop talking to their group. I spent all morning crying then took a leap of faith and called a girl who we were both friends with and told her what happened. She said she’s glad I spoke up and stood up for myself because he had been hastling her to date him despite being constantly rejected. I am really disgusted by the lack of sexual morality in the church particularly by men. Don’t get me wrong I love my faith and the Eucharist and so much about Catholicism but I don’t think I’d ever marry a Catholic because they all seem to be rapey weird creeps. Either that or the really “holy” ones tend to be very cliquey and unconcerned about people outside their circle. Catholicism feels very isolating. I often think about leaving and joining a Protestant church because its way more welcoming yet I want to be Catholic. Pleas convince me otherwise.

He doesn’t seem to be a practicing catholic man if he’s acting that way. Seems more like a boy.

And the catholic church is about truth and about Jesus Christ. Don’t run away from Jesus and the Eucharist because someone in the church is a jerk.

Not every catholic man is like that. In fact, most aren’t. But plenty of boys who aren’t really catholic are that way.
 
He goes to mass and attends young adult events. He even carries a rosary card around and leads us in prayer. It makes me nauseous
 
That’s sad to hear. As for being Catholic, I look at the people who lead a life that actually was in accord with the Catholic Church.

If you were harassed and if you can tell the world via the internet, can you not tell him directly, so that he will know your feelings?
 
Just because someone goes to mass and attends young adult events doesn’t mean he’s really serious about his faith
 
You can tell the pastor at your church and maybe this guy can be removed from the young adult group
 
It’s not uncalled for. She’s a young girl who just got sexually harassed. Let her feel her feelings

She is not a young girl, she has an 11 yo daughter

Daughter has a friend involved in WICCA Parenting
I just found out my eleven year old daughters best friend at school belongs to a family that practices WiCCa. This gives me the creeps. I am really concerned that she may get involved in this type of thing at school even if I forbid her from going to her friends house. How would you suggest I have a talk with her about this?

Wait, I think OP is a troll. In another one of her posts she calls herself a Virgin
 
Perhaps she had a child really early, say 16 and is now 27. ? No idea

Is sex overrated? Family Life
As a virgin I can’t help but wonder, is sex overrated? People keep talking about how great it is, regardless of their religion, but it gives some virgins major FOMO. Or would you say it is more DIFFERENT than society tells you it is, but not necessarily over/underrated? If you waited till marriage did it live up to your expectation?

How can OP have kids and be a Virgin? Hmmmmmm

Something smells fishy and it ain’t the red tide that’s been in the Gulf of Mexico lately

Is sex overrated? Family Life
This is an odd way for a practicing Catholic to put it. Rather: Physical intimacy is worse when done with someone not your spouse, it subtracts the most important meaning from it. (The construction is clunky this way, but I was trying to keep the parallel.)

Never had sex or married.

Probably a troll.

On this past Friday’s episode of Democracy Now!, a female investigative journalist discussed the “anti-Catholic playbook”. According to Wikipedia, the journalist’s mother was Jewish.

She made statements that Catholic schools had cultures of drinking and boys lusting over girls. However, she failed to discuss the cultures of public schools. I would be interested in knowing her sources to make such a general blanket statement about Catholic schools.

And, why is all this happening at the same time that the Supreme Court Nominee has a recent allegation against him?

Obviously, the political left is scared of another Catholic Supreme Court Justice. And it is becoming more obvious that they are scared of Catholic Schools’ effect against their agenda.

Let’s call this the “War Against Catholic Schools”.
