Dennis, I said I was an "exited" Catholic, meaning exited from the institutional Church but not from Catholicism.  You want to exit me from Catholicism, as well, when you say I am not a practicing Catholic, presumably meaning I am not participating in the life of the sacramental Church.  I am, however, "by desire," and the Catholic culture informs my life.     Broadly, the Church is a place where I do not feel morally "at home" in its universe.  If there is a main complaint, it's that the priesthood is the bane of Catholicism, corrupt and dysfunctional. All other "wrongs" trickle down from it-- misogyny, the failure to meld mercy and justice in light of the sexual abuse crisis (I've been a victims' advocate for 19 years), LGBTs, etc.  Mrs. Gingrich does not oppose these morally reprehensible practices, and Pres. Trump is clueless as to the crisis in the Church.
