Anne Rice Leaves the Church - Again

By The Associated Press (CP) – 4 hours ago
NEW YORK, N.Y. — Anne Rice has had a religious conversion: She's no longer a Christian.
The 68-year-old author wrote Wednesday on her Facebook page that she refuses to be "anti-gay ... anti-feminist," and "anti-artificial birth birth control."
She adds that "In the name of ... Christ, I quit Christianity and being Christian. Amen."
Her publisher, Alfred A. Knopf, confirmed Thursday that the posting was by Rice.
Rice is best known for "Interview With a Vampire" and other gothic novels.
Raised as a Catholic, she had rejected the church early in her life, but renewed her faith in recent years and in 2008 released the memoir "Called Out of Darkness: A Spiritual Confession."
