Most of the “converts” are probably not converting, but were nominal Catholics. Just as Luther and Calvin were the wake up call resulting in the Counter-revolution, the evangelization of Hispanics (and Africans and Koreans) may be the wake up call to the Catholic Church today. As a Lutheran, I welcome it.
Catholics need to rediscover the Bible.

Since I work with them, I can tell you that this is very true. I am happy to see that many are becoming serious about God. I have also personally seen many commit and/or re-commit themselves to Christ in their Catholic faith.
Jesus is LORD!
Yes, it's nice and welcoming. And you already know that sooner or later there will be "fallen Lutherans-former Catholics."
Wake up calls for sure.
And all those now-Catholic Tennessee folks will eventually have their own "fallen Catholics."
God will judge us all, each according to His Divine Will. I welcome ALL Christians to the fold of Jesus.
