Actually, most Protestants I have known do NOT think the Pope is the anti-Christ and the Church the “whore of Babylon.”

As a convert to Catholicism, I have many years behind me full of Protestant Bible study, and truth be told, not once was the Catholic Church discussed in anything but a respectful manner.

Sometimes Catholics have misconceptions about Protestants, just like sometimes Protestants misunderstand Catholics.

Thank you for making that important point.

As a Protestant, only one time were differences mentioned by our longtime pastor; specifically, the criticism of Protestants to neglect the importance,(sanctity), of the Virgin Mary.

"And the critics are right," he added.

He then proceeded to teach of the extraordinary life of this wonderful and gracious lady.
