Religion isnt (or shouldnt be, anyway), a public relations opportunity.
This guy usually carried an oversized bible.

Fiction doesn’t become you.
Unless you sit at the right hand of G-d, take care of your own religious life.

Document what? There have been Jewish converts to the Roman Catholic Church that didn’t happen on Easter for expediency or discretion. It happened with Newt - isn’t that documentation enough for you?
I hope I didn’t misunderstand your question.

Perhaps Sarah Palin will see the error of her ways and swim the Tibur too! We can always hope, right?
Sarah Palin, a lovely woman already, would just cause our hearts to burst with gladness if she was seen caressing a rosary... And kneeling in prayer!

He probably went dark on the subject because a leftist on Twitter ripped him as the "thrice divorced, blah, blah..." However, he tweeted just an hour ago.
To: NYer
Other converts to our Church include Malcolm Muggeridge, Knute Rockne, Tony Blair, Clare Booth Luce, Bob Hope, Bobby Jindal, Russell Kirk, Tony Snow, and Jane Wyman
To: Professor_Leonide
I saw your post above. Very interesting!
The story I heard was that she was looking to convert almost out of a sense of vindictiveness -- mainly to have her two sons also convert, so they would not be able to serve as King of England (since 1688, British law has forbidden Roman Catholics from serving on the throne).
From what I understood, Mother Teresa convinced her that she would be doing it for the wrong reasons.

Modern-day conservatives can also add Larry Kudlow, Laura Ingraham and Clarence Thomas to that list!
And an interesting one is Dick Morris.

No problem. I saw a pretty thorough list of prominent Catholic converts on Wikipedia and there are many hundreds more. I just named some of the most familiar.
To: Professor_Leonide
Perhaps Sarah Palin will see the error of her ways Hmmmmmmmm....
To: Coleus
Didn’t know about Dick Morris. But two other Jewish converts include Lew Lehrman and Larry Kudlow.
To: NYer
“Gingrich has been conspicuously quiet about his conversion.”
So ficking what!!!
Unless he wants to make it public, it’s nobody elses bussiness.
