GREG and JULIE ALEXANDER'S story is called: "Sex, Lies, and the Catholic Church"

This tells Greg and Julie's true story of being entrapped by the 1980's era of the so - called American Catholic Church while attending St. Edward's University together in Austin, Texas, starting in 1984.

Page 41:

"GREG: We met in college in 1984, at St. Edward's University in Austin, Texas.

"St. Edward's was a Catholic University, but that had nothing to do with our choosing to go there.

"I was there only because I had a basket ball scholarship."

"JULIE: My parents were excited about St. Edward's because it was a Catholic school, but I chose it because I liked Austin.

"There was a church on campus, but our Faith was not a part of who we were.

"I went to Mass because I was afraid that my dad would find out that I was not going."

"GREG: I felt obligated to go to Mass because I was dating Julie.

"But from the beginning, almost everything that we did was incompatible with the Faith.

"Premarital sex, living together, chasing after money and material things."

"JULIE: I was doing what everyone else was doing, so I did not think I was doing anything wrong.

"I certainly didn't know I had to confess premarital sex or living together.

"I didn't think about the way we were living..."

Then, one fine day came and it was like this:

"WE NEED TO GET A DIVORCE !!"

"JULIE: We even called the kids into the room and told them.

"They were seven and nine.

"The news devastated them.

"I remember them both balled up in a corner, crying...."
