I think the best way to find out why people leave a Protestant church for Catholic or Orthodox or why Catholics leave for Protestant churches is to read their own reasons. The conversion stories of Scott Hahn,
Thomas Howard, Dorothy Day ( from atheistic socialism to Catholicism) Cardinal Newman and G.K. Chesterton are not simply about various things. I would assume the same of converts from Catholicism.
And though I am Catholic and believe fully in Church teachings I would rather a poor Catholic become a good Protestant then remain where they are not able to see and love Christ with their whole beings.
Amen. What a gracious thing to say.
"And though I am Catholic and believe fully in Church teachings I would rather a poor Catholic become a good Protestant then remain where they are not able to see and love Christ with their whole beings."
AMEN. There are good Christians in all of the churches, and people need to go wherever they most strongly and devotedly see and feel the presence of Jesus Christ. "In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you."
