Anyone keeping score?
(And remember, if the numbers go toward the Protestants, it’s a well-documented fact that only scholars cross the Tiber towards Rome, and only uneducated hicks cross the other way)

I don't know if they're keeping score, all I know is that we do rejoice when another person finds their faith home. It isn't a competition, it is eternal life and death and while some may make an altar call and never hear from a fellow Christian again, joining the Catholic church is a big deal. It is an action that sometimes takes years of discernment and when the decision is made there are still months of classes, just to make sure you know what you are assenting to and know what the Church teaches.
As for "uneducated hicks", we become educated and join the Church, we just don't have any notoriety or fame so we don't make the news. Our parish welcomed 19 new members this Easter.
