It is even born out in threads like this where former Protestants sometimes talk about how angry they were against the Catholic Church.

Strange, I can't recall even one instance of a former Catholic expressing anger against the Catholic Church. Can you cite one of them?

He was Protestant, became Catholic and is now leaving to become Protestant again. In a few years he might become Jewish or Eastern Orthodox or just an atheist. Who knows?

So, if he converted to Catholicism yet again, would you post the same comment on his conversion?

Yes, but clearly you’ll just deny they are angry. Go to FCFC (Former Catholic for Christ) and you’ll see plenty of anger. Also, see Catholic Reformation on the ezboard.com network. There’s plenty of anger there.

Also, in personal conversations I have dealt with many angry former Catholics. Most believe something was not told to them that should have been.

“So, if he converted to Catholicism yet again, would you post the same comment on his conversion?”

Yes. I have made similar comments about repeat converts/reverts on one or two occasions before.

By the way, look hard enough on the net and you’ll discover EVEN PROTESTANTS sometimes admit the truth of this:

“Invariably, when you dig a little deeper, you find that these are all former Catholics who are angry over some failing of the Roman Catholic church—to themselves, their family, or to society. Some see it as their God-called duty to take a stand against Catholicism and point out its errors at every opportunity.” http://www.joemckeever.com/mt/archives/000103.html

” I am a Baptist Pastor who was formerly a Catholic. I got over my anger years ago.”

Yep, they are angry.
