text: I don't know if this is the way you feel or are just commenting on your experience with male converts to the church.
  But how sad, how very, very sad that the Catholic Church is a refuge for such damaged people.
  It kind of shoots down the argument that the church respects women doesn't it?
  
  And I have to say that my experience with people who have entered the church as adults, that they were thoughtful, people who found what they were looking for.
