5. I had a "coming to Jesus" moment in College when I left the Catholic Church.

I went to mass in the 70's and for the first time I noticed how marginalized women were. I said "hey this makes no sense" and I left before communion and never went back. My uncle was an Abbot at a Catholic Academy in Illinois, he asked me once "when was the l last time you went to confession?" My answer was "A long time Father, and I have a lot to talk about". He was not amused, nor was my Father. Too bad, I had grown past the Church at that point. My Dad said "See this is what happens when we educate women"...yep Dad, that is what happens.... Truth.
