Question to Protestants who converted to Catholicism?

Question

I have been wondering about this lately, but what type of history book have you been reading before you became Catholic?
and what type of history about the Catholic Church have you been reading before you became Catholic?

I just thought of asking you because it seems to me that non-Catholics seem to have different version of history.

thank you.

Answer 1

I went directly to the sources such as the Bible, the works of the ante Nicene fathers and the writings from the Councils. There were some other works as well such as the writings of Josephus. In addition, I studied the culture of Jerusalem at the time of Christ.

In other words I read real history and sources with some veracity. Most of the history related by non Catholic Christians are just a regurgitation of fanciful history written by anti Catholics who simply imagined and created false beliefs about Catholicism out of their hatred for the Church Christ created.

Answer 2

Just thought I would say that Cardinal Newman who was a convert said that "to be deep in history, is to cease being Protestant"
