Lesson 1: Our capacity for the divine
The catechism teaches that we are inherently connected to God. That within our souls is the compulsive need to reach toward the heavens. This notion presumes that everyone wants a relationship with God and I find that lack of nuance the most malicious part of this belief.

Dom
Dom was raised in a Catholic family, attending Sunday school, Mass, and bible study weekly. After years of discrimination against his queerness, he left the church. He explored pagan religion & new-age spirituality, seeking healing & spiritual development to no avail.
Realizing the occult aspects of Catholicism were what called to him, he began to rebuild his faith; founded on the principles of discernment, collective healing, and self-fulfillment.
Incorporating critical thought, academic research, and spiritual wisdom, Dom developed a folk practice that sustains him to this day.
“By approaching the mysteries of faith, we seek to incorporate ourselves. Seeking not to compromise our identity while navigating religious thought BUT to value ourselves as emanations of God. "

Nothing is wrong with the Catholic faith or those who practice it. Our mission isn't to condemn but to discern.
Many people, especially queer folks & women, face blatant discrimination from the church body & clergy members.
Some may feel disgust with the church's history of corruption & abuse.
Here, we aim to remedy what may be healed, remove what does not serve us, and reframe what has been corrupted for political agenda.
