Few things can make me as angry and sad as the Vatican's stances on...well, almost every social issue. I remained an active member of the Church for a while, thinking the love and open-mindedness I saw in laymen would someday spread to the hierarchy, but in the end, things just weren't moving fast enough for me. I'm not patient enough to wait another hundred years for this madness to be done with.
I think it's because of the beautiful things I did experience as a Catholic that makes seeing this bigotry and stubborn ignorance so painful to watch.
