You write "But I AM Catholic. I AM Christian. And I DO BELIEVE. But for me it's not about believing anything to the letter, word for word. It's not a prescription, it's a relationship. It's a LIVING Faith. It's being open to revelation, to self-discovery and other-discovery, to understanding and to accepting-without-understanding."
YES, YES, YES! It's so great to see other people who feel this way. It's one of the main reasons that I ended my last relationship. He didn't have religion or faith in his life and to him it was black and white. I couldn't call myself a Catholic because I didn't follow the teachings to the T and he didn't understand about being a bad Catholic.
