Publisher's Synopsis
Ex-Catholics in America out-number the Catholic faithful. But that's changing. They miss its ritual, its holidays. And they wonder who's going to teach the kids to be good. The stark answer: they are! The Church's scandals, not to mention its self-service, betrayed them. It abandoned them. They've chosen to go it alone. It feels foreign and lonely. The author was a priest in Detroit and trained in psychoanalysis. Much human anguish came his way daily which guided his book's many-faceted content. It's sound and practical, warm-blooded and sometimes unavoidably earthy. It could make you feel confident and glad you're on your own.
