No, I stated facts. If a convert wants to subvert the rights of Catholic homeschool parents, at the same time if they want to blatantly ignore Church teaching when it comes to the proper Christian Education of Youth, and then wants to proceed to wax eloquent on EWTN on how to be Catholic, I, as a Catholic would have to wonder, What are they up to? Further, If the facts of their behaviour offend you then take it up with them, not with me, I just pointed out what they engage in.
ON the other hand, if a convert wants to live as a good and faithful Catholic, then by all means I would applaud them, and let me assure you that there are plenty of Catholic converts in the public arena who are terrific apologists for the Catholic Faith.
Public behaviours that influence other Catholics on the part of either craddle or convert Catholics should be disclosed. In the situations I was describing, it has been mostly converts who have been conducting themselves in behaviour that is cause for concern and criticsm.

Okay, I'll take that at face value.

The way you're expressing yourself, though, makes it easy to get the impression that you're saying that converts are second-class citizens and, as a group, less than trustworthy.
