Do Extraordinary Claims Require Extraordinary Evidence?

Are you saying that it is acceptable to gradually (or suddenly) loose one's faith but unacceptable to grow in it?

(I haven't gone full RCIA yet, but I do have a very healthy respect for the Church Fathers, largely because of my Swedenborg studies. Something about Catholic culture rubs me the wrong way; although they do have the best visual art. Methodists have the best hymns, thank you very much John Wesley. My lack of commitment is a personal problem of mine and not a doctrinal one. Always been a bit of a square peg.)
