Shouldn’t you be embarrassed when a Protestant seminary ends up producing Catholic converts? Have you tried hiding under a rock?

Evangelical Exodus: The Protestant seminary that produced dozens of Catholic converts

You wouldn’t find the thousands of their names because of the stigma that attaches to them from friends and family.

“CWR: One common obstacle to conversion is the stigma it can carry with it—people can lose their friends and family, their whole social and professional network. Was this something you encountered? Is it a common issue with converts from SES?”

From article:

Christians often speak of “orthodoxy,” “heresy,” “essentials,” and “fundamentals”—but by what authority are these words defined, and doctrines labelled?



 

 


'When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said, in a rather scornful tone,
' it means just what I choose it to mean, neither more nor less.'

'The question is,' said Alice, 'whether you can make words mean so many different things.'

'The question is,' said Humpty Dumpty, 'which is to be master - that's all.'

In your dreams......

Why not? Are they ashamed of being Catholic or something?

FWIW, *dozens* ≠ *thousands* and your excuse does not cut it.

Not to mention that *catholicworldreport* is hardly an unbiased source.

Really Steelfish?

Your claim of thousand of “Protestant theologians” has been reduced to a handful of converts from a tiny seminary - plus some former students thrown in to pad it??

And it took almost a week to find this article?

Where is your list of thousands??

That is the part I’m embarrassed about - for you.
