Frankly, I also am appalled by the clergy abuse scandal, but I am equally appalled by my fellow practicing Catholics who voted in Donald Trump (at the urging of many Catholic clergy) because he said he opposed abortion (his history belies this). I consider abortion wrong, but that should not be one’s sole consideration when voting. Why didn’t these people look at the bigger picture?

So I remain a practicing Catholic despite my abhorence of some of the things I see in the Catholic Church. I also hope and pray that you will remain.
