[Dogstar]

I was raised in a strict Catholic household and can relate to having had to write Bible verses for punishment. I consider myself a disenfranchised Catholic and haven't been to church regularly since college. I had some bad experiences in Catholic school that showed me much of my religion was hypocritical. I also have many issues regarding the *rules*. After much searching, I have found my own path to spirituality with the Bible as my sometimes guide. My philosophy is to treat others as I would want them to treat me and to be as good and decent a person as I can be.
