One sure-fire strategy to turn a cradle Catholic into an ex-Catholic: a fear-filled Catholic seeking to voice a concern that might inadvertently impinge on the delicate sense of personal integrity of the priest: “Father, what about X-Y-Z?” Priest: “I have two degrees in theology; how many do you have?”
Sure-fire.
