I must say that, on the whole, if you’re going to pick a Protestant denomination, Foursquare is a good place to be. It is firm in its moral teachings, and with its focus on living for Jesus, a person will inevitably grow closer and more like Jesus the longer he attends.

You got that right. I rarely ever hear converts complain about their previous faith experience. I have great respect for my Protestant upbringing. It always seems to be a "former" Catholic who obviously never really knew their faith; and that can't always be attributed to them. Poor catechesis, most likely. But then again there are those who are peeved about a perceived slight they may have received from a priest, snotty people in the parish, etc., etc. years ago that just can't let go.

I would direct you to any discussion of the Anglican/Episcopalian Church where you will see that statement is not correct. There are former Episcopalians on FR who have converted to Rome who do bash the church they left.
