I’d say that ANY of those “dozens and dozens” didn’t have a clue that the Bible is read in every Holy Mass.

One of those "dozens" does know that you can attend Mass for 100 years and never hear the entire Bible.

I’ve met tons of ex-Catholics in the homeschooling groups. And tons of converts to the RCC. You should hear the things said about Protestants by them! One man has told me never to go to a Protestant church for fear that they will pollute my children. Yikes!

Can we agree that all who leave the Catholic Church and become Protestant are essentially phonies who leave for selfish reasons and all who leave a Protestant Church for the Catholic Church do so for pure and holy reasons?

Untrue. And since many Protestant churches have no set guidelines for Scripture readings, it is likely that you will mainly hear what the minister prefers.

What IS true is that you can read your Protestant Bible every day for the rest of your life and not hear the entire Bible because IT'S NOT ALL THERE.

I think that anyone who leaves any denomination either had a bad experience in a church or were not properly taught.

I think that people are searching for what seems best for them. I know people who have switched and as long as they have a good relationship with Christ, I can’t say a thing.
