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?

***NOTE: The Profession of Faith is NOT simply the Nicene Creed. It is the Nicene Creed AND three added paragraphs affirming and assenting to all acts of the pope and the college of bishops. After the Creed, the Profession of Faith says: "With firm faith, I also believe everything contained in the word of God, whether written or handed down in Tradition, which the Church, either by a solemn judgment or by the ordinary and universal Magisterium, sets forth to be believed as divinely revealed. I also firmly accept and hold each and everything definitively proposed by the Church regarding teaching on faith and morals. Moreover, I adhere with religious submission of will and intellect to the teachings which either the Roman Pontiff or the College of Bishops enunciate when they exercise their authentic Magisterium, even if they do not intend to proclaim these teachings by a definitive act."

It is NOT something that is fulfilled by simply attending a mass and saying the Nicene Creed. Affirming the Profession of Faith is a longer document than the Nicene Creed - as shown above - and is done with the priest during the liturgy as a seperate part of the mass when a person is received into the Catholic Church. One does NOT fulfill this condition simply by attending a mass and saying the Nicene Creed.
