It’s not all Spiritism, and maybe the voodoo line was a bit misleading; what I meant is that they hardly are mainstream Protestants and Pentecostalists. Have you ever read some of the 7th day adventist threads, where they are certain all of Christendom, except 7th day adventists, are going to Hell because they are unknowingly worshiping Zeus? Some of it’s like that. Many of the sects would be happy to destroy the faith of a million people if they could get one convert. Most promise that God wants to make them rich, rich, rich. One prominent Latin American sect is even led by a self-proclaimed Messiah who now calls himself the anti-Christ. No kidding. (And, no, I am describing very different sects; 7th-day adventists don’t have anything in common with these other sects.)

What I am attacking is the presumption that if these groups are rabidly anti-Catholic then they must be more like mainstream denominations. Few are. But yes, there are several very mainstream-Protestant Christians, also... They’re just not typical.

Thanks for your further explanation.

They need the Bible and peer review.

That’s what we all need.
