I can’t believe the “Church” has taken this position on...

I've been back in Church since March of 2003, but that doesn't mean that I have resolved all of my issues with the;institutional church; in fact, sometimes I simply don't agree with the hierarchy and become angry and/or hurt by what I hear. However, these disagreements do not "make or break" my faith as a Catholic anymore.

As we come across them, we will post web links to sources that discuss the so called "official church" position on various issues. If we can find them, we will also post links to sources that provide an alternative view point. What you won't find posted here will be our personal opinion on any of these topics.

Some of these postings will be about highly controversial topics. It is not our intent to discuss them in this forum, but simply to provide information sources that may assist you in drawing your own conclusions. So why include them on this site? Simple, for some people these are road blocks that need to be dealt with before coming home is possible.

We will do the best we can to post only those sources that are credible, but please realize these will only be samples and sometimes we may not get it right. You will need to develop your own personal exploration of conscience.

This page will be under continuous development. Keep checking back!
