Ex-Catholic, Neale Donald Walsch is an author I’ve been intrigued by lately even though spreads around New Age bumbo jumbo. In this talk he proceeds to eloquently present one of the reasons he left the Catholic Church. Some of what he says applies to all the major faiths and is very thought-provoking.
I mean seriously, eating meat on Friday was a sin? Really? I didn’t know that.
He gets bonus points for his idea on what he calls separation theology.
Watch it, and leave your response if you have one.

Eating meat on Friday used to be forbidden (though fish on Friday was permitted). That rule, though, got dropped sometime post-Vatican II.
(FWIW, I’ve been married for twenty years to an ex-Catholic; my mother-in-law is still a faithful Catholic. I myself was raised Episcopalian - similar ritual, less guilt.)
Funny how the Vatican adds and drops rulings. Kinda reminds me of fatwas.
