I have to say that for a once atheist and now a believer hopefully in Christ, I am very pleased to hear of it. One thing I have to say I am concerned about it that you say that you now are a part of the catholic church. Unfortunately, the catholic church falls vastly short of the Glory of Jesus Christ simply due to the FACT, and i mean FACT that they twist the true Word of God and teach heresy in the worst way, in a way that results in their profit in money. There are thousands of reasons and facts and false doctrines and heresies that they have over the centuries promoted for their own gain in one way or another. If you truly just study the true Word of God, lets say the King James Version or New KJV Bible. Read it from cover to cover, and there you have the complete Words of our creator. If anyone says there are more Words of God you need to hear, tell them you will hear it from God himself as it says in the last few verses of Revelations. In the Bible you will never hear anything about confessionals, or purgatory or any of the other BS that the catholic cult tries to push on people. Remember this was the same church who killed thousands of Christians in the dark ages, the same church who once made it a crime for it parishiners to actually read the bible and that is because people would know that the church was blasphemous and committin heresy against God. Why oh why out of all the religeouns in all the world the catholic church is the only one who has countless priests that molest and rape little boys?? satan is at the heart of this catholic church. Although I have to say one thing, if even one person comes to know the true Jesus Christ, then the Lord is in some ways working through the catholic church. You will find the true Word of God preached in almost any non-denominational church in the world, like Calvary Chapel or some other church of the same. I think you will find that there is more truth in the Word of God than in any text given to you by the catholic church, mormons, or Jehovahs witlesses. I write this out of love of God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. I pray one day if not today your eyes will be opened to the true evil of the catholic church and come to understand that it is merely another type of cult following.
I sincerely appreciate your concern for us Catholics, but many of us (myself included) became Catholic when stopped listening to what people like Jack Chick and Jimmy Swaggart say about Catholicism and we examined for ourselves what Catholics really believe and why.
I found, much to my surprise, that Catholicism is completely rooted in the Bible – even more so than the Evangelical Protestant church I grew up in. I was amazed the first time I went to a Mass to find that there is more Bible reading in a Catholic Mass than in any Protestant church service I had ever attended.
If you are sincere, and I believe you are, I would urge you to go to http://www.catholic.com and click the “Library” link in the upper left corner. Read what Catholics believe and why. I’ll bet you will be surprised at how much you thought about the Catholic Church isn’t true!
BTW, Jason, this comment box really isn’t the proper place for a debate, but if you would like to email me, I would be more than happy to discuss your concerns as much as you wish.

You know this for certain?
