She said she is ashamed to look God in the face. Now, since she claims to be Catholic now, which happens to be the same religion I've been for the last 1...2...3...21 years, I must have missed the part where God stopped being nice and starting being vengeful.

ok, i've been able to read for the past, i dunno, 20 years or so, and i've been a Baptist for the last 1...2....3.....23 years, so you're not the only one with a Christian upbringing. God is not vengeful....but he does require a certain amount of respect. you said she was "
teaching fear."
i didn't read what she said as "
God said i can't look in his face b/c he's a big meanie", but more so like "i feel bad so i
won't be able to look him in the face." make sense? if i am unfair or mean to a friend, it's hard for me to look them in the face. not b/c they are scary or vengeful, but b/c i feel bad for what i did. same kinda thing.
so really....maybe someone should accuse you of not being able to read. i would like to think it's just us interpreting things differently, though.
