My "church" is my family and the people I care about- who i support and who supports me. And this is not a place to go on Sunday.

Default How would you respond?

How would you respond to this? The person who wrote this is very dear to me and I want so badly to respond but don't know exactly how. This is such a sad statement.

My "church" is my family and the people I care about- who i support and who supports me. And this is not a place to go on Sunday. It's a verb that happens in real-time. I do not have a preacher, and I am glad. As a woman, I have worked quite hard to not have another man or woman tell me my "proper" place in this world. And to say "I'm blessed" would mean that somebody else has not been. I am not special, or blessed, or chosen because of a religion- I am alive, I am happy, I have used my brain to to come far, and I've been darn lucky.

Please note that I will most likely appropriate your response

Can you provide more context?

Have they ever been Catholic?
