I'm fortunate in that I was one of those kids who believed nothing without proof that I could test myself. You have photos that explain how the VCR works? I won't believe you until I take it apart and see it myself. So while I was primed for religion and had believed that I had visions, they could give me no real reason why I should feel guilty over my sexuality, my desires, or any other natural part of my being.

So while i understand the pain many ex-Catholics are going through I was lucky enough to remain unscathed.
