With the conflict between Catholicism and Protestantism in Great Britain the student of history is familiar. Suffice it here to say that the mutual hatred of the two contending sects, the zeal of their respective adherents, their professed love of God and devotion to Christ's service, were chiefly signalized by the sword, the ax, and the stake.

When people badmouth religion, I always say that the trouble arises because there are human beings involved. Imperfect beings tend to handle things imperfectly. It's a pity that various folks worshiping the same Christ tend to hate each other so deeply over doctrine.

The moment you even say the word, “Christ,” you introduce doctrine. So, the argument is about the difference in what and who is Christ. That is not small, but huge.

[Revelation 911]

It's a pity that various folks worshiping the same Christ tend to hate each other so deeply over doctrine.

problem being, if you investigated the doctrine - youd quickly find they are two different Christs. The problem arises when one faith group (LDS) profess to be Christian, yet abhor everything having to do with the mainstream, from creeds, to infallability of Scripture, to even the place where the atonement of Christ took place.

‘Hate each other so deeply over doctrine’? Are you a mormon using that whine? Who told you disagreement over doctrine is hating individuals? Sorry, hysteria is not the name of this exercise, but that was a good try.

It's a pity that various folks worshiping the same Christ tend to hate each other so deeply over doctrine.

If you understood the DOCTRINES of each group, you'd see that the 'christ' they worship are NOT the same.
