6. I gave up my Episcopal Church ...because they didn't do enough for PEACE
Edited on Thu Nov-29-07 09:22 PM by KoKo01
because of the Iraq Invasion. I am now considered by them to be the "UnChurched"...and this is from somone who had badges and certificates as a "Perfect Sunday School Attendance" for all 12 years of my "Schooled Life" and all my long life of more mixed attendance after that. I was an Episcopalian...which I thought was the most "intellectual" and forward thinking of our Protestants (even with the blight of Henry VIII who created us to get rid of a bad marriage) and all that baggage of the first of the Reformation.

My Christian Faith left me when we invaded Iraq. I couldn't stomach it...I looked for alternatives...and have yet to find one. I've done the UU's, Church of Christ, Lutherines, Presbyterians and everything inbetween.

Nothing will restore my faith..... After Vietnam...and now Iraq Occupation... I am "out in the wilderness."
