It sounds kind of corny, but it felt very spiritual, falling in love

Not corny at all. It's a spirtual love affair that deepens and grows in intensity over the passing of time. It's a well which one can skim or into which one can lower the bucket for deeper spirituality. As one convert noted: "It's forever"!

My response is about your tag line.

It reminds me of the Sisters teaching us grade school kids to avoid the near occasions of sin.

That was great advice that helped me so far in my life. Not too many regrets.

**At 15, Leah Wilson is one of this year’s youngest converts. The bright and personable McKinley High School freshman said she grew up attending a United Methodist church but was never baptized.

“I learned about Catholicism in the fifth grade, through some of my friends who were Catholic,” she said. “Last summer, I decided I wanted to become Catholic. I’m very excited, and my family is happy for me.”

Wilson advises the curious to do some homework.

“It’s forever,” she said. “It’s not to be taken lightly.”**

If this 15 year old gets it, why don’t other Protestants get it? Perhaps, because they don’t want to — and keep denying the one, holy, Catholic and apostolic Church???
