You still are a Catholic and come back at any time. Just sit down with a priest and get your questions answered.

Your Catholic Baptism and Confirmation marks are on your soul to stay.

That's your standard reply for everyone.

The arrogance behind the assumption that someone is not Catholic because they have unanswered questions is breath-taking.

I have no questions about Catholicism that remain unanswered.

Most of us who left the Catholic church did so for precisely that reason. We DID have questions and did have them answered. By Scripture, NOT a Catholic priest.

Your Catholic Baptism and Confirmation marks are on your soul to stay.

And bunch of unadulterated, unprovable nonsense.

That's simply a power grab by the Catholic church to try to lay claim to someone's soul.

The only one who has claim to my soul and ownership of it is JESUS. Any other marks on it are erased with the blood of Jesus when we were made NEW creations in Christ. The enemy no longer has any hold on us.

What if that priest was Father Pfleger or a Father Bernard Lynch type?

Thanks but I don’t want to be a Catholic again. I love my church, the Nazarene. Jesus was from Nazareth. Growing up we never had Bible studies. We learned our prayers, the Saints, went to confession, went thru the sacraments, etc.

I drew closer to God then ever before in the Nazarene Church- it was filled with lot of former Catholics. I went to Bible studies and learned so much about the Bible, the Lord’s word. So many things that didn’t square up to Catholic man made laws.

The Catholic church and schools were good to me for discipline, morals, etc. But I couldn’t handle all the “guilt” that was piled on as well with their teachings.
