I have just realized something. If I am remembering correctly from a past anti-Catholic thread that pro-life authored, pro-life admitted to being a fallen away Catholic who is now attending a fundamentalist church. Perhaps his or her attraction to the Catholic threads is really a cry for help and a desire to return home.

pro-life, the soul is a magnet for the Truth regardless of whether your mind and ego are able to comprehend it now. You may benefit from reading some of Dr. Scott Hahn's books. He was a Protestant minister who battled Catholics on a regular basis. The Lord touched his heart and mind and he converted to Catholicism. He has since written many books and he may be able to answer some of your questions from the Protestant mindset. I have not personally read his books but others here may be able to make specific recommendations for you. The Catholic bashing you engage in has not been in vain. Many have testified here that due to your work and those like you they have returned or converted to Catholicism. It seems even now that applies to you too.

The use of the abuse button is something Catholics are tempted to use when the Church is defamed or a blasphemy is printed. Reviewing this thread I believe that the evidence of such an evil activity needs to be left for all to see.

We all need to keep a list of the names of these individuals and pray for them to receive the Truth and be brought into or back into the Holy Catholic Church. We need to see every assault as a desperate cry for help. And with our prayers I am certain that the Divine Mercy of Christ will be poured out on these souls.

The FReeper called "pro-life" is clearly right on one issue i.e., "Life" -- so where God has worked part of the truth in this FReepers life, let us pray fervently for the whole Truth of Christ and His beautiful Church be opened to this soul.

We also have prayers and litanies of reparation to pray in response to such blasphemies and offenses against Christ and His Holy Church. We need to take note that this person "pro-life" posts attacks on us with impunity. I believe this thread is ample evidence now of violation of the posting standards on FreeRepublic, and I can only hope that this individual will not continue to enjoy the privileges of being a FReeper when this person flaunts those rules in order to post taunts at Roman Catholics.

Also, the Surprised by Truth series have real-life conversion stories. Hahn is great reading and watching . We watched one of his videos at the beginning of RCIA and was most definitely enlightening.
