Why I am not picketing… Intro

Dear Protestant friends,

Thoughts were stirred within me due to the interdenominational dating / being "brought to perfection as one" conversation. The following four posts are the significant reasons for me choosing to be Catholic. I hope that they inspire you to thoroughly consider why you worship the way you do. Feel free to comment. I would love to discuss your ideas.

Part 1- Since the Beginning
Part 2- The Eucharist
Part 3- Infallible Doctrine
Part 4- More than Scripture

From the Catechism:
"...Many elements of sanctification and of truth are found outside the visible confines of the Catholic Church: the written Word of God; the life of grace; faith, hope, and charity, with the other interior gifts of the Holy Spirit, as well as visible elements. Christ’s Spirit uses these Churches and ecclesial communities as means of salvation, whose power derives from the fullness of grace and truth that Christ has entrusted to the Catholic Church. All these blessings come from Christ and lead to him, and are in themselves calls to Catholic unity."
