It doesn't really matter how much of the rules or the dogma we accepted and lived by if we're not really living by the fundamental creed of the Catholic Church, which is service to others and finding God in ourselves and then seeing God in everyone - including our enemies.

I was brought up a very strict Catholic and I don't practice anymore or anything.

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

I just try to be the best Catholic.

I found out that many of our Catholics simply don't know what the church teaches, and why, on a lot of issues, and therefore are saying things that they think are okay. They simply don't know.

I am just an ordinary Catholic.

I am a Catholic.

Those Catholics, they really nab you when you're young.

I try hard to be a good Catholic.

I can't speak to the differences within the Catholic Church.
