It takes some level of intelligence to be a Catholic, but any idiot can join a mega church if they keep their donations up.
I will ring your doorbell and run away!!!

It has always been true. The beginning of every persecution the Catholics perpetrated on Christians who rejected them was rooted in the fact that their numbers were dwindling and that the non-Catholic Churches were growing all around them.
Look out America. The Catholic Church has undermined every free society that did not submit to it's will in History. If you think things have changed then you are truly in need of an education.

because evangelical churches actually preach the truth from the word. The catholic church has a lot of rituals and man-made doctrines, additional commands made by the pope, and much of their doctrine keeps them in bondage. Evangelical churches try to teach exactly what is in the word of God, without any extra- biblical teachings. People are drawn to the truth, once they hear it. Many people find saying the rosary over and over a useless ritual, or repeating the same mass over every week find no satisfaction in church, and only attend because they are 'required' to attend.
Those who go to evangelical churches find the joy that Jesus meant for us to know in His word and in the gathering of the flock on a weekly basis.

"Fire and brimstone" evangelicals are actually using well documented mind-control techniques originally developed by accident in the 19th century. Only a strong grounding in Scripture can protect you from that kind of control.

Because they proselytize in their communities and Catholic churches typically don't.
