Oh, those evil, despicable evangelicals! Leading people to Christ and ensuring their eternal salvation without consulting Rome! Whatever IS this world coming to? Why, the very IDEA that someone could be saved from the fires of Hell and not be Catholic... Mercy! And the NOTION that anyone could be indwelt by the Holy Spirit and not even own a Rosary -- oh, don't EVEN get me started. Dear me, it hasn't been this bad since the rise of the hated Lutherans and the coming of the Baptist hordes. Oh, the humanity!

As if being a Catholic were more important than Salvation itself.
As if being a Catholic were more powerful than the Blood of Jesus.
What damnable blasphemy!
All of Christendom, Catholic, Protestant and Evangelical, has a sole commission to spread the gospel and win converts to Christ. All have a shared goal. We may belong to different divisions, but we are members of ONE Army, having ONE Commander, who is Christ Jesus.
Isn't it about time to start acting like it?

I don't think evangelicals are evil or despicable, I do not believe it is right to categorize any whole group of people in such a way, but they cannot lead souls to salvation apart from the One True Church which Christ established, nor do they have the authority to do so apart from the authority which Christ established on earth, his Church.
Evangelicals teach doctrine contrary to the Church, both cannot be true. As long as they teach doctrine contrary to the doctrine taught by the authority on earth established by Christ, His Church, they are leading souls astray. Truth and error are not compatible, light and darkness cannot coexist. Therefor I do not believe it charitable to confirm anyone in error either by silence or verbal affirmation.

How about taking a class in logic and amending your statement? Religions that teach things contradictory to each other cannot be both correct. It's against logic and Christ.

A Protestant Church can NEVER ensure anyone's salvation, let's just get that straight.
Protestants may be saved, but that's *in spite* of their status as Protestants.
And besides, what's with this "ensuring" salvation anyway? Isn't that putting faith in a specific denomination?
