    This is the second time I know of this video appearing for a short time on u-tube only to be pulled due to copyright.One wonders if the makers/owners of this film really DO want Catholics to come home. Wouldn't free dissemination of this wonderful film make more sense? Wouldn't ongoing viewing of this film not only bring more Catholics home & even awaken the desire to become Catholics in non-Catholics? Stepping on God & Church evangelation for the sake of things, (in this case a copyright)-well
