Only problem with that theory is that I'm an adult convert, with my 12-year Bible pin from Sunday School and a couple of prizes for Scripture knowledge. I was also a history major with a lot of reading in the medieval Churchmen, among others. As Blessed Cardinal Newman (who also saw the light) said, "to be deep in history is to cease to be protestant."
