Thanks again for this thread, GC. Very informative. And very similar to the many life experiences of former RCs I've known who have left Rome for the liberty of Christ.

It's always fascinating to post something like and then watch as the opposition is unable to muster any coherent debate other than to call the woman a "liar."

I guess that's what comes from swallowing doctrines of men to the exclusion of God's word.

"But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him." -- 1 Corinthians 8:6

This does sound more than a bit fishy.

New Advent/Catholic Encyclopedia is not an official organ and it’s accuracy has been questioned often on this forum. For certain, one could not say, “If New Advent says shes a nun, she is.”

Beyond that, the author of the article shows she’s a bit questionable as to former status herself, so why make an provocative leap? And one based on an unofficial internet source too boot.

Lastly, the anonymity. Why? I don’t believe her reason. There are a great many who have publicly crossed the Tiber in both directions. If his or her purpose is to convince others why hide his or her identity?

I can’t think of any good reason to hide her identity other than s/he would be exposed as untruthful.

There’s lots of apologetics by former Catholics; I’m betting this one is a fraud.

INDEED! INDEED! INDEED!

Oh, and, of course, they trot out compulsively the old worn claim that the nun, priest, whomever were not properly taught their nutty RC cult edifice Rubber histories and rubber Bibles ‘properly.’

Seems to me that the mindless lock-step gestapo thinking of the globalists is tailor made for swallowing by such nutty cults and their followers.

I can just ‘hear’ the millions of thoughts now . . . ‘oh, well . . . I guess it must be true . . . the magicsterical/ Vatican pontificators/ holographic image of a young womanish looking figure on a cloud (which MUST be Magnificent Magical Earth-Mother Mary) . . . all say so . . . all say it’s true . . . this is the new way to go . . . so implant my chip here . . . where do I bow to worship the image of the world ruler?’

That's been my experience. I'm a member of a fairly large church and about 25% of our membership are former RC's. It seems that in most cases it all began with reading Scriptures for themselves.
