Era Might Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 OMG MAYA = CATHOLIC, BRILLIANT. hehe. That was one of the reasons why the Indians of Latin America were relatively easily "converted," they found a soul sister in Catholicism and managed to integrate their old ways into a new system (and often blending the two). It was harder to do that in Protestant North America, which rejected more traditional forms of religion (priesthood, ritual, etc). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basilisa Marie Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Alfredo Ottaviani. NO. JOSEF FRINGS. And his personal assistant, Fr. Joseph Ratzinger. :) 1. Jesus. 2. Apostalic Succession. 3. The Eucharist. 4. Marian Devotions. 5. Diverse intellectual and spiritual tradition. 6. Scripture and Tradition. 7. Grace and Choice. 8. Saints. Especially Martyrs. 9. BEST. ESCHATOLOGY. EVER. 10. Oldest Christian group (Okay, I'll allow a tie with the Orthodox because I'm feeling nice). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhuturePriest Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) 1. Because if you go to the Midwest Catholic Family Conference and you weren't immediately convinced of the truth about the Catholic Church then you are clearly severely incapable of intellectual thought (And I've been there twelve times. Thirteenth time is coming up this year). 2. Priests are awesome and I would be a wreck without them. 3. If I didn't have a reversion I would still plan on being a high school dropout that wanted to play lead guitar in a Rock band (Thank. You. God.). 4. I could someday be a Priest and you might be lucky enough to be in my parish, though some may argue this one should go in the reasons to not be Catholic thread. 5. The Papacy. 6. Mary. 7. The Sacraments. 8. The Communion of Saints. 9. The beautiful history. 10. The absolute and unwavering truth of it.
