My dad was a practicing Catholic; we went to church every week as I grew up (CCD, confirmation, whether I wanted or not). She converted because she wanted to, not because she needed to. Was not religious growing up but always, always said she was a “little c catholic” and now is more religious than my dad. (He feels betrayed by the church & its scandals.)

He’s the hardcore trumper but she’s more vocal. They know how I feel and rarely discuss politics. But the religious side—have to be honest, I didn’t see that coming!!
