Why Do Catholics ...?

‘Dear Catholic World: Why do YOU Remain a Catholic?’

Elizabeth Scalia asked this question this summer at her blog, The Anchoress.

Using the hashtag #WhyRemainCatholic, Scalia encouraged the Catholic online world to respond.

For her part, Scalia posted an image of adoration and the Blessed Sacrament: “This image makes a most succinct statement as to why I remain.”

Many others responded, too, including blogger Kate O’Hare.

“When you find truth, you should stop searching for it. I’m a revert who was away for a very long time, then took a fairly long time deciding to return. With the help of EWTN, a used copy of the Catechism and a lot of reading, I inched my way back into the faith.”
