yeah, this is why I say I'll never be Catholic the way that I want to. My understanding of the world will never match the doctrine of the Church. and like you said about the genie going back in the bottle, I can't ever really pretend like I didn't reach any of the conclusions I did. So I am definitely outside of it. I think of it as one of the schools I draw on, but ultimately I'm just a religious person without a religion that I necessarily identify with 100% The desire to have a home is still there, though

Simone Weil helped me feel not so bad about it, although she phrased it/understood it as "finding Christ in the religions of the East," which isn't exactly how I see it
