You are right, Christianity has "somewhat" failed me, but I must be fair to say that my childhood Parochial education was vastly superior to the alternative, and I have learned many precious truths in Christianity concerning my Savior. I have met many, many precious children of God over the years, one of which brought me to saving knowledge of Jesus Christ, Who loves me and has never done me any wrong.

No matter how bad you think things were for you, someone else was far worse off. No matter how bad the Christian system around you had become, within that rotten shell was the loving Savior Jesus, Who loves you, and gave His life for your sins.
