So, all ye Protestants, non-denominational Christians, and all non-Catholic Christians, time to share your reasons for not being Catholic. That or join our phamily!

Well, the top of the thread said "Let the lameness commence."

A Catholic Web site needs at least a couple of token non-Catholics to remind you that not all non-Catholics hate Catholics, and, in my case, to ask stupid questions that the rest of you asked in First Grade.

Also, hearing the opinion of a non-Catholic doesn't hurt sometimes. It's simply a different point of view (and sometimes not).

But, mostly, if Jesus_lol and I (and any other token non-Catholics) converted, you'd have to put out "Heretic needed" want ads to fill the huge gap we would leave if we became Catholics.

Plus, Jesus_lol and I are lovable and cute, each in our own non-Catholic ways. :x If we became Catholic, where would the uniqueness be? We'd be just like everyone else.

And, lastly, we give you someone to pray for, that they they be converted.

Whoops, I forgot about Hasan. How could I forget about Hasan? In any case, he's perfectly capable of answering for himself.

Whoa, I'm a VERY bad non-Catholic tonight because I overlooked Paddington, another beloved non-Catholic Phatmasser.

Besides, last time I looked, we were considered part of the "phamily" :P

Isn't Jesus_lol Catholic? I thought he was...and I thought that I met him once or twice.

I should let Jesus_lol speak for himself, but if he is Catholic, he converted within the past 12 hours. Look at the words under his Avatar on one of his posts.

I feel very complimented that you consider me one of the phamily. You (or anyone else on Phatmass) is free to pray for my conversion if you want to, and I will also feel very complimented that you want me to join the tribe.

It seems like a lottery really. With no proof or evidence what so ever for any religion, I am really confused as to how a person picks one over the other.
I would say in most cases it is based on family or society influence. But of course there are always exceptions.

I don't think the Hare Krishna's do themselves any favours jumping up and down on street corners though.
