Indeed, the great John Henry Newman is a convert to Catholicism. Of Course, and here I am guessing, 99.99% of Protestants have never bothered to read his works. Those who do apparently convert to Catholicism.

They all say the same things...Nothing new...They just keep repeating each other...Besides, I have no interest reading anything from a queer Catholic, or a queer Protestant...But you help yourself...

His diary entries show he was attracted to women. So you're safe and needn't fear he'll convert you to homosexuality. To help you out, here is a link to some of his books. They're free now, and since you're aware that you're not reading a queer's books, you can open your mind. Enjoy!

Nothing new in your post. Bible-Christians drown when challenged to swim into the deep end of theological pools. Since reading major theological works is out of the question for Bible Christians getting them to read the cogent arguments contained in a small paperback like Hillaire Belloc’s “Great Heresies” is too much effort.

Indeed, truth be said, even having Bible Christian engage in a careful read of David Anders’ article is too much. Theological depth and historical scholarship is not their game, and those Protestant theologians and scholars who embark on such a lifelong soul-searching journey to prove Catholicism wrong end up converting to Catholicism!
