It certainly leads one to wonder why one would hang out with a bunch of people who were following a damned, heretical form of Christianity!
What kind of witness is that? Don't you fear that your presence in your Catholic parish is sending the wrong kind of message about what the Church teaches and how aceptable it is?

SD,
Jesus said in one His parables that his people would be like wheat growing in a field surrounded by weeds (which are heretics, unbelievers, the spiritually indifferent, etc.)God knows those who are true to Him and would collect them. Believe me most Catholics I know are true to the principles of Christianity and many of them who read their Bibles which is being encouraged from the pulpit, disagree with some of the teachings of the Church if it conflicts with Scripture. This a good thing that people find these things out for themselves. My parish priest is a great guy who encourages people to follow Christ no matter how you choose to as long as you further His cause.
