I don't have a source, but I know a former Roman Catholic priest who became a priest in a local Episcopal church. And there are a number of Protestant ministers who've become Roman Catholic. There's a TV show called "The Journey Home" on EWTN (Eternal Word Television Network--Catholic television) and it's about people who converted to Catholicism. A number of them were former ministers. Look up Scott Hahn. He's a former Protestant minister who's now a big Catholic spokesman.

hmm...good question. well i suppose they can change their beliefs too. we can and we're human. they're human so yes i'm sure they can. thankfully i've never heard of this happening (converting from christianity to another). so i can't explain a time. i could tell you of stories i've heard about people switching denominations in the christian church. but i know that's not what you is searching for.

Rabbi Asher Wade is an Orthodox Rabbi who was formerly a Lutheran (I think) pastor. He is on Ohr Somayach's website, so you can find his talks there, and he talks about his conversion experience.

Follow this link and look in our year books for multiple cases of entire Church's realizing they WERE in false religion and changed to the truth. That's what I said, entire congregations that changed...........
