They’re converting anyway. Also, sinners and heretics do not have to be Evangelicals. Plenty of them are baptized Catholics who have never formally left the Church. There are plenty of Catholics in Europe, America and South America who have returned to a practice of the faith because of Pope Francis.

Well, then, they're not being converted then, are they?

They may be being reconciled, but if they're already Catholics, they aren't being converted.

“Well, then, they’re not being converted then, are they?”

Of course it’s a conversion - a conversion of heart.

“They may be being reconciled, but if they’re already Catholics, they aren’t being converted.”

Technically the same is true of baptized Protestants. If a Lutheran, Episcopalian, Presbyterian, Baptist, etc. becomes Catholic it is a “reconciliation” and not an actual “conversion”. “Conversion” is a commonly accepted colloquial term. Once again we see that you apparently are unfamiliar with basic terms and usages. Don’t you claim to be a former Catholic? I thought you have claimed such in the past, but I must be mistaken because surely no one who apparently is this unfamiliar with basic Catholic things would attack the Catholic faith.
