Anne Hathaway Quit Catholicism For Her Gay Brother

Anne Hathaway and her brother Michael.

Anne Hathaway's family left the Catholic Church because of its intolerance of homosexuality. Anne grew up wanting to become a nun but shunned Catholicism when she learned her older brother, Michael, was gay.

"The whole family converted to Episcopalianism after my elder brother came out," she told British GQ. "Why should I support an organization that has a limited view of my beloved brother?"

But Episcopalianism didn't really take either.

"So I'm ... nothing," she said. "Fuck it, I'm forming. I'm a work in progress."

I quit attending and supporting the RCC when they started becoming more anti gay a few years back..

I still consider myself RC and I will still be here when the Chruch returns to the message of Christ's Love and acceptance and inclusion.. instead of it current one of fetal worship and exclusion..

Good for her!!! You can't deny who you are and if the church thinks you can then they are setting you up to fail! It is the nature of the beast!!
