Two philosophy doctoral students from Princeton University, Joe Schmid and Noah McKay, have converted to Catholicism, following years of intellectual struggle with faith. Schmid, known for his YouTube channel ‘Majesty of Reason,’ cited arguments from contingency and miracles as key factors. McKay, who faced difficulties with the Bible’s reliability, found evidence for Catholic miracles compelling. Both emphasized the importance of prayer, particularly the Rosary, in their conversion process. In Spain, Ernesto Castro, a philosopher and YouTube personality, also converted after a year and a half of catechesis, influenced by a visit to the Montserrat monastery. These cases highlight the role of philosophical inquiry and personal experiences in modern faith journeys. More: Zenit
