But the root of the contentiousness is that some believe that their doctrine is the whole and complete Truth and therefore the other guy is in error, or worse, not "Christian" at all.
That, IMHO, is the great value of the Religion forum - to help other posters and lurkers "work out their own salvation" (Phl 2:12).
>>Of course not all evangelicals are "anti-Catholic" but likewise, if they believed the Roman Catholic doctrine was the full truth they would be Catholic.<<
So why would any Evangelical who saw that graphic be offended by it, it he/she was not Anti-Catholic?
Would anyone be offended if it said "Anti-Christian"?

Somehow, I don't see where insulting another denomination helps with ANYONE's salvation. Allowing that insult without retrobution is hard to understand. When someone believes in Sola Scriptura how does that give them any right to insult a Jewish person's beliefs?
