Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.

Growing up Catholic and what I believed at that time:

I believed that I Dennis was responsible for the death of Jesus; I believed that I Dennis was the root of all evil; I believed that the sins of the world were on my shoulders and that I was responsible for them.

Every time something happened my thought was, "Bless me father for I have sinned." This was my normal behavior during my growing years of 4 - 25. I finally said to my self that I could not live like Jesus or a good man without dying, so I gave those thoughts up.
