[one Lord one faith one baptism]

Mark, all things work together for good for those that love the Lord.

I thank God that the phony catholics post.

why? because it allows real Catholics to proclaim the truth of the Faith once delivered to the saints.

it probably is the first time many people have actually heard what the historical, Biblical and orthodox Faith is.

It does seem rather conclusive.

We are in agreement, my friend.

Since you pinged me, should I assume you are accusing me of being dishonest about being raised a Roman Catholic? You also pinged others that have testified such as well, are you accusing them of being liars? So we are clear here, we were Catholics so that does NOT make us "phony catholics". You DO know the difference, right?

Let me just ask you this, you too, Mark, what is so difficult to believe about someone being a Roman Catholic and deciding that it was not for them? Is it impossible to imagine that once a person knows Roman Catholicism - and knows it well - that they could honestly leave it and still be a Christian? I'm asking not to be argumentative or hostile, but to get an honest response. Why resort to calling people, who admit they were once Roman Catholics, dishonest and liars? I realize that this particular thread has been a knockout, drag out battle royale, but are such accusations coming from that bloodied field or do you really believe none of us are being truthful? Time to clear some air.
