That one? So Catholics say Baptists and Presbyterians don't belong to a true church.

Hey, you got "ecclesial community" that's not so bad

Don't get offended if we return the favor.

I wouldn't get offened at all. Obviously you'd believe you are right, as so do I.

After all, good Presbyterians and reformed Baptists aren't permitted to marry Catholics.

Interesting. I did not know that. Thanks for the info.

I did not know that.

I suspect most Presbyterians don't either, but it is in the Westminster Confession of Faith.

Another point of trivia. Technically, a Presbyterian elder holds the Biblical office sometimes referred to as Bishop. So, in a sense, the Presbyterian Church does have bishops, although I would suspect that both they and the Catholics would agree that that is not what the Catholics have in mind in their usage of that term.
