“Protestant converts from Catholicism said they enjoyed the service and worship of Protestant fait”

Like I said before anyone that would give up the Eucharist for Jimmy Swaggart waving a Bible around were totally ignorant of the Catechism of the Catholic Church. It is absolutely impossible to be raised a devout Catholic and leave the faith for a man-man faith that has no sacraments and no structure. It shows a lack of understanding and never taking the faith seriously to start with.

And by they way there are percentage wise more sexual abuse in protestant faiths than the Catholic Church. If you care to see the numbers I can certainly get them.

AMEN.

I overlooked this, yet i never claimed abuse figures were higher among Catholic clergy, and i know the figures vary in percentages among studies and reliability, and subject to debate, but that the highest abuse is in the sacrosanct secular world.

Nor do i defend all that is called Protestant, though exposing RC anti-protestant bias, and defend a faith based on Scripture, not one church.

And Scripture commands, "But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;" (Ephesians 5:3). Thank God for His mercy, but may we never presume upon it.

So these two are the IMPORTANT things in Catholicism?

“for Jimmy Swaggart waving a Bible around”

Straw man much?

“and leave the faith for a man-man faith”

False assumption that presumes an answer. How’s the weather in Fallacyville today?

Do those dreaded “Luther followers” also shuffle molesters around to protect them and use their “structure” to give them fresh kids, and keep the authorities at bay?
