Did you even read the article? The premise was that "Catholics" ( he uses the term over and over) should insist on Protestant as the proper appellation for those who simply call themselves Christian. Yes. But my response was to one of YOUR premises, not the author's. You seemed to think that each group should respectfully called by their individual self-appelations. Hence, all protestants ought to be called Christians if that is their desire. You imply that anything else would be unfair labeling. So within your parameters I ask that we all simply refer to the Catholic Church as the One, True Church or do you insist that you should call us what You want.

You are not answering my criticism of the man's premise. You are just being smug. So, now I am supposed to say okay, I will call you the One, True , Church if you call me the really, truly only one true church. C'mon, kind of lame don't you think.But that is Roman Catholicism, lotta gotcha, and preaching to the choir.
