It pisses me off that I can't even go to my own parish church anymore. I am made to feel like an outsider, like I don't belong anymore. Like they have no interest in hearing from someone like me anymore. I don't feel welcome, especially if I know the sermon is gonna be another one of those "let's read the bishop's letter again" affairs. While, at the same time, they have yet to address the pedophile priests issue at all.
