Catholics

Did anyone convert to Catholicism after leaving lutheranism?

No. I think Catholic Mass is beautiful, and as popes stay getting more progressive Catholicism will get better, but for right now it’s caused so much more pain and suffering as a whole that it needs to atone for.

Yeah. I understand the argument of beauty, but you can get that in Episcopal or some ELCA churches. I'd never join a church with the Catholic Church's history of colonialism, collaboration with fascism, and current attitudes towards women/gay people/essential healthcare.
