[Dr. Eckleburg]

Protestants do not anathematize Catholics.

Catholics anathematize all Protestants by summoning the demons from hell to curse all Protestants who believe they are saved by grace through faith in Christ alone.

What more is there to know regarding how we view each other?

Vanity threads like this serve no real purpose other than to cause more discord.

When the RCC wants true ecumenicism or even civility, it knows how to achieve it -- rescind the curses of the Council of Trent.

Looking at the date of the Council of Trent, I'd like to suggest that the Pope and a whale of a lot of Catholic rulers kind of disposed of whatever doctrines it supported when they signed on to the Treaty of Westphalia.

It was such a political thing anyway, and Westphalia resolved the political issues.

There could be some RCs around who think Trent continues to have legitimacy of some sort, but they forgot what came next ~ The Thirty Years War ~

well, these threads may cause discord among some, but even the Apostle Paul went and “reasoned” with some of the other religious leaders....

If one is open minded, then these threads could serve as a learning experience and people could share knowledge instead of fight. Besides, who can argue with facts....? (besides liberals...)

Better than that believe The Gospel.
