It is FR anti-Catholicism that has pushed me, like a sign from above, to the Church. I’m in RCIA and will join the Church on Easter. I noticed the Catholic bashing and, as a Protestant, was appalled! There are many issues to be concerned about these days, yet they insist on aiming their hatred at Catholics. As a mom, I don’t know how they have the time for it. This started my journey, as I began researching the issues, and I realized that there is only one Church.

Moths are drawn like to a flame to their own destruction. Following impulses for an eternal decision is certainly your right.

Wow, just wow.

Thank you for sharing this. Welcome home. Please consult the Catechism and other official documents when you have questions. Take everything you read here with a grain of critical salt please.

And for goodness sakes, please visit www.catholic.com An apologetic site without comparison IMO.

I’m sure that is not the response that the Catholic bashers were looking for but I’m so happy you were able to dig through all the muck and find the truth! Welcome home!! May God bless you and your family.

Praise God and welcome home.

“It is FR anti-Catholicism that has pushed me ...”

FR anti-Catholicism caused me to do much more extensive research into sacred scripture to find the scriptural proof texts for our (catholic) doctrinces and was always thrilled by how the scripture always supports the catholic position!! It has deepened my “apologetics” considerably and I am very grateful. I have always loved scripture and apologetics and this has made it even more meaningful.

Congrats!
