Today, some RCIA candidates officially converted to Catholism at my parish.
Oh well I suppose some of them were rabid fundie southern baptists or something, so in that case conversion to a slightly less fundie brand of christianity would be a good thing.
Otherwise it's bad.
Each year it's like 50 people.

Well it really doesn't matter anyways, since if they are fundies they will remain fundies.

Re: Converts
I'd like to point out that Catholicism has an iron central authority, which allows it to have different amounts of shit in different areas. For example, the pope can dictate that Evolution is an acceptable scientific theory (insofar as it doesn't step on his spiritual toes), but he can also say that condoms are the tool of the devil.Darth Wong wrote:Catholicism and Protestantism: same shit, different piles.
