In Providence, you describe how you became disenchanted with the Catholic Church. You described how the Church's actions seemed to reject you. I know this isn't quite the case, but it serves well enough for me to pose the question. Why did you automatically assume the Catholic Church was speaking directly for God, as they claim to do? I have been raised Catholic and I began to realize that it was just a big show. I assumed that the Catholic Church could not speak for God, that he could only speak for himself. See, I was still clinging to the thought of a singular, heavenly, benevolent God. What made you decide to abandon GOD instead of just the structure of the CHURCH? • Ishmael.org, the work & philosophy of Daniel Quinn
