Have you ever been to a Catholic Mass?

It was the moment that Scott Hahn was present at a Catholic Mass that let him know he was on the verge of discovering something new and wonderful.

You need not close your mind and heart.

Are you familiar with Hahn’s story?

Yes, I have, my Italian side of the family is Catholic. I was a Catholic for much of my youth. (The last mass I was at was two or three years ago when a friend died. He was Catholic but I fear he was not born again. I hope and pray he was, but there were no outward signs.)

As for a conversion experience, emotions cannot be the basis for faith. If we go with emotions as a touchstone for faith, then the Mormons have as much claim to having the correct God as do you. They have a witness that they FEEL with their heart is true, and that is their fall back position when the facts are so clearly against them.

And no I have not heard about Scott Hahn’s conversion.
