To spare the guilty I'm going to be vague but I got very involved at my parish and boy do I ultimately regret it. The laypeople are pretty much OK, a few difficult ones and a lot of gems.

But the clergy...so much drama. SO MUCH DRAMA. So little emotional regulation. So little emotional maturity. I'm not getting paid for this... If this were a personal relationship, I'd have ended it a long time ago and walked away.

I cannot talk about this with the clergy because I know how they talk about people behind their backs and spin stories.

Maybe I don't regret it. I did some good. I would not know what I know otherwise. But you can see to much, and know too much.
