I have a hunch that you’ve probably never read anything that would contradict what you believe.

You crack me up. First of all, I am a convert from active Protestantism. The more I studied the Bible, the more Catholic I became. I studied Catholicism for years and read reams of arguments against it and I’ve been active on FR religions threads for at least 8 years.

There is no slander against the Catholic Church that I haven’t read and there has been no-one who could prove to me where the Catholic Church was wrong, except their own opinion and topios.

I would hazard a guess that you haven’t really studied Catholic theology, you just disagree with what you’ve been told by those who are against it.

Well, that clarified THAT. I am happy for you. If you have spent a life and converted, then you must be at peace. I happen to know many more people that have gone the opposite way but I know the road runs both ways. I have read Scott Hahn’s book.

You are wrong about my study of Catholic theology and history. I just didn’t come to the same conclusions as you did. What did happen, however, is a lot of the criticisms I used to have I no longer have. Of course, as with all things, I am still learning and a work in progress.
