Yes, It is easy pickings for a Fundamentalist-Evangelical to snare a nominal or poorly catechized Catholic. And sadly I must say they make up the majority of America’s 63 million plus baptized Catholics, and there has been many polls and statistics to show this.

I met a former Catholic who said he never found Jesus while growing up in the Catholic Church. And it was only years after he had fallen away that he said he found Christ for the first time when he heard the gospel from a televangelist in a way that really grabbed him, which he said was quite the opposite to the “dull homilies and boring rituals” he had during his youth.

Blame bad catechesis or dull homilies, the Church needs to make every effort to teach the fullness of the truth and to proclaim it boldly. Lest the people go somewhere else to find a another truth that IS proclaimed boldly…
 
Your friends is trying to lose you in semantics. Saying “I am not anti-Catholic, I am just opposed to the Catholic Church,” is as disingenius as saying, I am not anti-abortion, I just stand opposed to the abortion movement. It’s saying the same thing. The prefix anti means against. If you stand opposed to something, you stand against it. The very definition of anti-Catholic is someone who stands opposed to the authority of the Catholic Church. Now within anti-Catholicism, there are varying degrees of charity with the most vociferous and venomous being the comical (pun intended) Jack Chick, with the most charitable being the likes of Robert Schuller and Janet Parshalls. But, disregarding their charity, they stand opposed to the authority of the Catholic Church in favor of Christian individualism and “sola scriptura” pseudo-dogmatism.

I’m Sicilian, and in my house tripe is actually a kind of delicacy.

Please don’t equate it with the **** that passes for anti-Catholicism.

Thank you.
