I hope my humble 2 cents are not unwanted here because I'm Catholic, but I can definately relate to what your wife is going through. It's hard when you've had such a negative experience with a religious group to have to call them to mind (even if you are saying "catholic" vs "Catholic"). I agree with the others that letting her vent to you could be a really good thing. Maybe by talking about it she will be able to let go of some of the hate she's holding in her heart. I don't know that changing the words to the apostles creed is really the way to go, (1) because it's part of the faith and (2) because even if she doesn't say it, she'll still have to hear the rest of the church proclaiming it. Maybe if you two share some personal prayer time together Jesus will take the pain that is burdaning your wife.

You both are certainally in my prayers.


Thanks for the reply. Perhaps I speek only for myself, but just because as Reformed Christians we are emphatically against the Papacy and everthing it stands for, we do love Catholics who love the lord. Your advice is more than welcome! :)

Thanks Wilfred :hug: I questioned my replying just because this particular thread seemed like sort of a "private" conversation and I didn't want to make waves of any sort in a thread that was obviously written out of genuine concern and seeking genuine advice. And btw...we love you Lord lovers too :)
