On being a non-Catholic on CAF -- a few questions for CAF non-Catholic veterans

[LutheranScholar]

1. What brought you to CAF?

Curiosity. I wanted to see how fellow Christians interacted together on a board hosted by a Catholic Apologetics site and I’d lurked here a few years previously. I wanted to acquaint myself with some posters I’d become an online fan of.

2. What keeps you logging on after all these years?

The topics on this board are invariably fascinating to me. I’m a history and theology fan and I get a lot of seeing how that dynamic plays out here, among people from many diverse religious traditions.

1. Name an aspect of Catholicism that you respect or admire.

I respect the regard for tradition that Catholicism has.

1. Name a Catholic figure (past or present) that you respect or admire.

St. Francis of Assisi.

1. Is there something about your faith tradition that you think that Catholics misunderstand? If so, feel free to elaborate and clarify.

How do you deal with what you perceive as unfair criticism of your faith tradition or non-Catholic Christianity as a whole?

Depends on what it is. I’ll either ignore it or type a multi- page dissertation.
