Ain’t it strange that no one ever posts a story about someone leaving Catholicism and becoming a baptist?
...that any Catholic on this board will believe.
“Ain’t it strange that no one ever posts a story about someone leaving Catholicism and becoming a baptist?”
Ever?
Plenty of those stories out there but they are picked up by sites that hurt Catholic's feelings and thus are banned from being sources of information...
Near as I can tell, the only reason numerous sites you guys reference aren't banned is because we don't whine about them...
I know of some Jesuits who left the church to follow the gay lifestyle. Close enough?

I know several people who have. Mostly, because they found the Catholic doctrine to strict or too conservative on one issue or another.
Do you want to interview me for an EWTN special report?
Now to directly address your question. There have been articles here on FR addressing those leaving Rome to Evangelical, Reformed and Baptist. However they are few because with born again Christians it is not a numbers game. Plus roughly 70% of those posting here on FR are former RCs, now worshipping at Protestant and Evangelical assemblies. Just ask some of the people I pinged.
Instead, some have to scour the web looking for Catholic PR articles for "converts."
Which can be said such data mining is reprehensible, but I find it's just sad.
In Acts 2 we are told the Lord added to the Church. Not fellow man.
Probably because born again believers understand that it's not about converting from one religion to another. That religion isn't important, but becoming born again is.
FR wouldn't be able to handle the bandwidth of the number of stories of people who left Catholicism for Christ.
There have always been stories in Protestant circles of Catholics, including clergy, becoming Protestants. However, according to FR Catholics, all such stories are "bigotry" and must be pulled.
