To: Dr. Eckleburg
I have a friend heavily evolved in the pro life movement. Like me he grew up RC and was saved as an adult.. He later relocated to another city ..we kinnda met because of the life movement, and then discovered we had not only both been RC but he was actually a member of my church before he left the area. So we know many of the same people from the pro life organizations.

One of the observations he made to me is that many protestants return to or convert to Catholicism in the movement because that is where the power is.. if you want to move up the food chain ya gotta be Catholic

I wish this man well and that he finds whatever he is looking for .... but I doubt that is Christ
