I still think of myself as Christian.  I no longer consider myself a member of the body of Christ, or a child of God - certainly not a servant of God. This is why I now attend Mass at St Bernadette's. I won’t take communion, though it represents the body and blood of Christ, because it is an expression of our part in his body. In another church, if I were asked why I do not take communion, I would have to explain this. If I am ever asked by a Catholic, it is enough to say, I am not Catholic.
