For those of you who don't know, Richard Bennett was born into a RC church and was a RC priest for 22 years!

He must have slept through a lot of his theology classes...

Two authors are listed. I'm guessing Mr. Nicholson wrote most of it, and Mr. Bemnett signed off on it. If you read most Protestant-turned-Catholic apologists, they don't read like Catholics. IN fact, part of why they are such a gift to apologism is that they think in terms of their audience believing in sola scriptura, etc. This just doesn't read like something an educated Catholic would write. A Catholic who never understood his Catholic upbringing brought up in a thoroughly Protestantized American culture, and then "brought to the Lord" might write something like this, but besides the terrible understanding of the Catholic faith, there's simply nothing that suggests that the man was once immersed in the Catholic religious culture.

That said, so many American seminaries are just so horrible...

And yet the RC Church ordained him anyway.
