It transcends words. I have kept the description of what I've seen a secret as a covenant between me and my Lord.

More than it did before. We know about things like germs, telomeres, dark matter, we can even turn lead into gold with enough money. It's disingenuous to say the progress that's been made since is the result of catholic influence.

So tl;dr
You got a mental breakdown and joined a random religion.
Happens very often, nothing special about that.
Most religious people are just delusional idiots that have mental problems.
