I've read plenty his stuff over the years....I thought he was already Catholic!
From what I have read about him, everyone else thought so too!
As an aside, this blog has been criticized for "parading out" the new converts and their stories but I still can't get over how the Holy Spirit reaches hearts through the Catholic Church.
Despite the fact that Catholicism is often accused of being an ancient, superstitious religion of ignorant people, we continue to see the brightest intellectual minds of every century drawn to it.
But it is still readily accessible to the not so bright too!
Well, it is no accident (as Lenin would say) that the Catholic Church has the biggest worldview, and the Greatest Unified Theory of Everything. It's no wonder that inquisitive souls find her.
