Fiction. For every story like this I can show you a hundred true testimonies of those who swam the Tiber and came home.

Go ahead. Links will be acceptable.

Many are called, but few are chosen

MM, they do not understand this is not about "numbers" ..Truth is not determined by vote or plurally . Truth is truth even if only One person holds it ...

Jesus Christ is the way the truth and the life.. not the Catholic church

There are also much more plausible stories of those who have become Protestants. Stories that don’t embellish or distort fact in order to paint the Catholic Church and Catholics as tools of the Anti Christ.

I understand how one can come to disbelieve certain Catholic teachings and become a Protestant. I don’t understand lies about what the Church truly teaches or practices.

If you say you left because you could no longer believe that Mary was conceived without sin or that Christ is truly present in the Eucharist or that there is a Purgatory. O.K. I get that. And I respect one for finding a denomination where their doubts will no longer hold them back from serving God.

But spout some nonsense about Catholics not reading the Bible or Catholics believing you can earn your way into heaven or worshipping Mary or not understanding that Christ died on the Cross for our sins or that the Mass is a perpetual sacrifice (the same one that was offered at Calvary, but in an unbloody manner). Then I don’t have patience for your nonsense and I begin to seriously question your reasons for leaving.
