To those who say "just become Protestant":  I believe many Catholics view their relationship with the Church as family.  If my husband and I are struggling with some issues and my marriage is not particularly appealing at the moment, I don't divorce him and go find a new husband.  If I am working on psychological pain handed down by my parents' mistakes, I don't cut my parents out of my life and refuse to acknowledge the good of them raising me and giving me life.  My relationship with the Church is the same-all human interactions are bound to involve some pain and discord but we are supposed to struggle and work through these things while honoring our commitments.  As the author said below, "it's my church too."
