REASON & THEOLOGY

BREAKING: Sam Shamoun Admits He’s NOT CATHOLIC – Why Has He Been Saying He Is? For months, Sam Shamoun has publicly claimed to be a Catholic and even appeared on Catholic shows sharing his “conversion” story. But in response to questions raised in my previous video, Sam finally admitted he has not formally entered the Catholic Church – and doesn’t appear to have any plans to do so! In this video, I walk through what it actually means to be in full communion with the Catholic Church, what the Church requires for someone from the Assyrian Church of the East to convert, and why Sam’s public claims have caused confusion. I also explore why so many Catholics seem unaware of these basic requirements—and what this says about the state of catechesis today. Since Sam hasn’t made the required Profession of Faith, can he rightly call himself Catholic? Why has no one in Catholic media questioned his conversion story until now?
