I come from a Catholic religion, but I'm not Catholic.

One cannot really be a Catholic and grown up.

I am just an ordinary Catholic.

I am a Catholic.

The cultural contrast I saw between religions... Catholics have a lot of mediators, going through saints and Mary or whatever. Protestants in general say things to God directly.

It's troubling for me as a Catholic to be at odds with the church.

I grew up a Catholic and I don't want to talk badly about the Catholic Church but there's a lot of routine stuff going on. You say the same prayers, you sit, you kneel, whatever.

I will forever stick up for Catholics and Christians in general. With a small number of very horrible exceptions, they do play by the rules.

I was raised as a Catholic, but I didn't like the Catholic Church at all. I thought the nuns were mean.

I can't bear Catholicism.
