If you rad my post to MD, you’ll see my comments about Protestants. I never said or pretended that it doesn’t.

Matter of fact, I have my own issues with the legalism I see in both the Baptist oriented churches and with what I also see as legalism in Pentecostal Churches.

No church is immune from falling into that.

However, my experience with Catholicism as a whole has been so consistent for so long that it’s likely beyond any chance of convincing me otherwise.

Nevertheless, I am sure of my destiny, much as that irritates so many Catholics.

I am sure of my destiny,

The mohammedans are also sure of their destiny. You and I may well disagree with them as to their destiny, but their certainty remains.

my experience with Catholicism as a whole

is whatever it is that it is. I cannot change it, nor do I know (beyond your own claims) what it actually is. My experience with Protestantism is so thoroughly and completely negative that in weaker moments, I wonder if it is even appropriate to call Protestantism "Christian" in any meaningful sense of the word.

I did, and I did. I don't often post on these threads any more, but I do read them.
