For every conversion you find FROM Catholicism, there’s one about a conversion TO Catholicism. For example, Scott Hahn, who was a Protestant minister. Different strokes for different folks, I guess. Now, instead of trying to divide us Christians, maybe we should be strengthening our bond so we can fight the REAL enemy — violent extremist Muslims.

Every church I attended had Irish and Italian folks who had grown up Catholic and left the church to come to a real relationship with Jesus Christ.
They told me multiple horror stories about abuse, charlatans, drunks, etc. in the Catholic clergy. They also told me that the turning point came when they either:
1. Read the Bible and discovered God's Truth, or...
2. Were invited to an evangelical service and were amazed at the fervent worship and faith displayed including truly changed lives.
I can't cite statistics, but feel absolutely certain that far more people have left the RC church to join Protestant or Evangelical churches than the opposite.
I 100% agree with you. And not just Christians either. Those evil schmucks want to kill us all and they need to be stopped.
We do have a common enemy I will agree, but we’re not the same as far as the term Christian goes.
There’s a large difference, as this article points out in simple terms.
I know Catholics though that don’t believe in the church, and just call themselves that because it’s a familiar term.
So there is a zero sum game?
