"In so doing, they ignore the very scripture they proclaim . . . "

A legitimate point, but I wonder if the alternatives are not simply Catholicism versus evangelicalism, but rather Catholicism versus evangelicalism versus apostasy or atheism. In other words, are the evangelicals converting people from Catholicism to evangelicalism, or are they saving lukewarm or apostate Catholics from indifference and agnosticism via conversion to evangelicalism?

Not when St. Paul wrote his Epistle to the Romans. The same holds true today.

The Catholic church could pick up a lot of conservative Christians who feel lost in their liberal Protestant denominations, especially if it demotes and denounces the Catholic socialists, like those who demand open borders and government sponsored healthcare.
