An "Artist" Leaves the Church...

I left the Catholic Church because as an artist I could no longer hold out hope that there would be a place for me in the church. The Catholic Church, which gave the world the Sistine Chapel, Dante, and the genius filmmaker Robert Bresson, has lost interest in supporting artists. God is a dynamic and creative universal force who can be found in movies, rock and roll, and poetry.
The Catholic Church is no longer a relevant player in any of those fields, or in the arts in general.

From the comments:  "You don't have to be Catholic (I'm not) to see this as a lot of whiny tripe."
