    I'm a pentecostal protestant but heading to catholic church after got answers to my questions which I never got from my protestant church since 11 years of my faithful walk in pentecostal denomination. Now I'm convinced there is only ONE HOLY CATHOLIC APOSTOLIC CHURCH which catholic church only, whom Jesus gave the keys to st. Peter.

      Sorry Poodle, but Jesus only established ONE Church. One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church. If all brothers and sisters were from the same faith then all would believe the same, but they don't. For 1500 years all Christians believed the same, and then came the protestant revolt.

      Adam, my brother-in-Christ, I encourage you to continue beyond the reconsidering of your biases against Catholicism. At this present time, Catholics are undergoing tremendous scandal and evil in her body, mainly from its clergy. You see, simply because some are in error, does not automatically compute to the entire priesthood being stained as well. Holy Mother Church is holy, yes indeed. It is her MEMBERS that are sinful, and there are many (in terms of numbers, Catholics are the highest number of Christians in the world). This is why these scandals are multiplied and focused more upon by the mainstream media. There is much beauty and awe about the church throughout her overt 2000 years in existence. She is always persecuted, many times very unjustly, but she welcomes it and offers it up to the Father in Heaven, following the lead of her Divine Savior and founder..... Our Lord Jesus Christ. Blessings to you brother.

    I’m 62, born in 1961. Raised in a Baptist and Methodist household. When I was a child in the 1960s, my mother loved to watch the short clips of Bishop Sheen’s messages shown at the end of certain programs. She always talked about how she used to listen to his program back in the 1950s. I was baptized Presbyterian during college and confirmed in the Episcopal church. At 50, I converted to Catholicism. I’m glad I grew up in a home where all Christians were valued. ❤️🙏

"Our religion is dying out".... Where and why do you conclude that? I reverted to the RCC in 1988 and the spiritual wealth of life giving catechesis available today is unparalleled, We are fed through "our daily bread"and Catholic Christian Media in many forms every single day, Thanks be to God, "Seek and ye shall find"!

      MyNana - I think we can agree that Fulton Sheen was a good man, but he was not and is not God and to imagine that because your problems resolved as a result of 'praying' to him is very problematic in biblical terms. He was a very inspirational man and messenger from God but it's very worrisome that so many of his appreciators have elevated him to the position of God Himself! Fulton Sheen is now in the position of all the dead who 'know nothing' so I would ask you to reconsider your belief that you can pray to the dead!!!

I was well-schooled in relation to the church and its doctrine; however, since the bible states clearly that the dead are simply dead, I have a problem with the contradictions when it comes to 'intercessory prayer'. Of course, being from an Irish background, I was well used to the constant reference to the dead, but it was steeped in superstition and I took it with a pinch of salt so I think we'll have to agree to differ in this respect!

      ​@@evelynvanzale4757 You owe it to yourself to study the Fathers and Mothers of the Earliest Church; the Shepherd of Hermas, and the "Early Christian Fathers" (LCCN 72-123888), and to test the best Catholic minds and not accept what has been done to doctrine over time. You might pay heed to converts such as Steve Ray, Scott Hahn, John Bergsma, and others, who went past their prejudices and found deeper levels of Scripture they had never properly seen. Consider too that this besieged Church you left is besieged by Satan, as predicted, because it is the family Christ called together. Judas departed because the ecclesia was not taking the direction he saw as best. No, you’re not Judas, but we are all prone to say after Dante's chief demon, "Non serviam."

Notice at one point he referred to us "Christians" not just Catholics - incredible servant of the Lord. I believe there is a change coming when the rift betw Protestant and Catholic healed and there will be one body of Believers again united in the gospel message as it was in the early church - God bless you.

My parents being European had French connections here in the US. I went to large picnic filled with both American and French families. I was overhearing the wives talking about keeping the weight off for their husbands despite being mothers. Well I thought that was awesome. They knew what was out there and also knew what it took to keep their man interested. There are American women that do the same, but sometimes they do it for just themselves.
