How Does a Person Become a Catholic?

Why the answer to that is simple. If one truly follows where the Holy Spirit leads them, they will find themselves in the Catholic Church.

Do all us catholics a favor first though. REALLY learn the faith. Pick a sponsor who practices their faith and TALK to them about it. We don’t need anymore “catholics for choice” catholics who think there should be women priests, freedom from celibacy for priests, birth control or abortion. Oh yeah, and if you voted for O, make sure you go to CONFESSION first, cause you just help set the pro life movement back-A LOT.

We, the faithful,are not interested in changing our beliefs to suit your needs. I,for one, am sick and tired of “reaching across the aisle” in my church. I adhere to the teachings of the church to remain catholic. I invite all those who don’t agree or want to change them to find a more suitable denomination, you already are NOT a catholic.

After you learn what we believe, and you agree with what that is, WELCOME!!

** It’s my opinion that if you want to know about any subject, you go to a person who actually knows the facts. For example, don’t ask your attorney a medical question. See what I mean?

If at all possible, find a Catholic to talk to who actually practices his/her faith.**

Very wise words from this author. Might be good advice for all here on FR! LOL!

If one truly follows where the Holy Spirit leads them they will find themselves saved and if they happen to be Catholic then they are a saved Catholic same goes for Baptist, Lutheran etc....The Holy Spirit will guide to where they need to be...
