“Many people who were baptized in a Protestant ecclesial communion, but then entered into the full communion of the Catholic Church because their original ecclesial communities abandoned the Apostolic Faith… perceive that the Catholic Church is going down the same road of abandoning the faith.”

Why do you imagine this can be a "Catholic Caucus" thread when the article denigrates "Protestant ecclesial communion(s)" as abandoning the Christian faith?

I missed that. I have asked the moderator to remove the caucus designation.

typically the excerpt ends with a plea to Mary to preserve their church...

Actually the quote you cited doesn’t say the Protestant ecclesial communion(s) “abandoned the Christian faith”, rather that the converts to the Catholic Church believe they did. It’s a subtle yet distinct difference which in my opinion would have still permitted the Caucus label.

But I guess that horse has done left the barn already. So, on with the usual bash fest (from both “sides” mind you), full steam ahead!
