Most Protestants don’t understand their history and how the Protestant and Episcopalian movements started.
As a Protestant, I have no problem with the Catholics. Heck, they are the progenitors of all other New Testament Religions and from that well spring, we should learn from them while also holding our value system for worship.
And as a Catholic, I admire (and desire) to have the same degree of biblical devotion that mainline Protestant denominations emphasize.
And I recognize that the real enemies are militant atheists, intrusion of modernism/liberalism into Christian practices, blatant attacks on Christianity, restictions on worship, and in some parts of the world - the advance of radical Islam.
Yes, those other protestant religions did come from the Catholic Church.
So why do people bash Catholics?
