Jack Chick, whom I would regard as the Michael Moore of religious matters, is another perfect example. People will read his "tracts" and swallow them hook, line, and sinker. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this incident. I was raised a charismatic evangelical but converted to Catholicism almost 3 years ago. I grew up hearing people bash the Catholic Church, especially disgruntled ex-Catholics. And yes, I came across Jack Chick's anti-Catholic propaganda, so my thoughts toward the Church were quite unfavorable, to say the least! However, God had the last laught! (And I'm glad He did!)<br /><br />I do have to respectfully disagree with you on one point. I believe that we should try to win people to the Catholic faith. After all, if it is the one, holy, Catholic, and apostolic Church, we should seek to bring others into the fold! <br />But thanks again. God bless you richly as you keep fighting the good fight! <br /><br />EvanEvanhttp://evanscove.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469509176316025961.post-66412868769497784022010-03-06T20:51:50.510-05:002010-03-06T20:51:50.510-05:00Thanks, Jill for the recipe.

Born and raised a Baptist, I converted to Catholicism about 2 years ago and have never felt more at home. The Baptist church (at least the one I went to) is not tolerant of the Catholic religion and I admit I had my doubts coming into it. My mom even stopped talking to me for a year when she found out I was converting. If only those types of people could learn the truth, they'd be so much happier.<br /><br />BTW, I have a really good salmon patty recipe on my blog if you're interested.

I'm sure there are others who share our feelings.
