I am a former Catholic.
One of the things that I deeply resent about the Catholic faith was its **cultish** teaching that leaving the faith meant certain damnation in the fires of hell. They were the “true” faith and the only possessors of the ordinances of salvation.
Ok...So I am past that and the Catholic cult no longer has any emotional hold on me.
Generally, the Catholic Church as a lot that is correct about it. Our nation would be stronger if we had a lot more Catholics who truly believed in and followed every word of their catechism.
But...Please, **stop** bashing Protestants as somehow having their faith founded by Luther, Knox, or Henry...or anyone else. Our faith was founded by **Christ**!
We’ve talked about this before. There are many who claim to be “former” Catholics out there. The facts are that once you are baptized as a Catholic you are always a Catholic.
Welcome home at any time.
