Journey Home

Jennifer was raised Christian, but by middle school had decided that religion was a stupid thing for stupid people. As an exchange student in Austria, she began to be intrigued by Catholic culture, but still saw it as outdated and superstitious. While studying Marxism in East Germany at Karl Marx University, it gave her a realization she needed to have a better grounding in philosophy, which led her to reconsider Catholicism. In addition, her experience as an interrogator for the US military helped shape her anthropology in a way that she came to understand that the Catholic Church had the fulness of truth about philosophy, God, and the human person.
