Gerry Matatics is Touring the Country Preaching Against the "Vatican II Church"

[Bruised_Reed]

Wasn’t it Tertullian that they say “argued his way into the Church and argued his way out the back door”?

He spoke to Scott Hahn when Scott was thinking about becoming Catholic, maybe Scott should talk to him now.

You can take the convert out of Protestantism, but you can’t take Protestantism out of the convert.
(at least in this case)

I think it’s in Gerry’s conversion tape, when Gerry is talking about Scott and the reading Scott is doing and how it’s leading him to Rome, Gerry makes the comment about Scott, “much learning hath made him mad”. Sadly, that comment is more appropriate to Gerry.

Not so, actually. Unless something has changed recently, Scott and Gerry have hardly spoken to one another in more than a decade, but not through any fault of Scott’s, so far as I can tell.

so the ended up severing their friendship over this? Thats terrible.

No. Their friendship went on the rocks years before Gerry’s public avowal of sedevacantism. I know that Scott made efforts to renew the friendship and that Gerry was not responsive.

I find this sad…I so enjoyed a set of tapes he had out when he first came into the church…What happened to him

Ditto, I really liked his conversion story and his other tapes from early on.
