The poster put forth that Catholics identify with Islam more than Protetantism, then highlights (bolds) a passage saying Muslims are “first.”

That’s misleading because this section describing the Catholic relationship with other believers follows sections specifically addressing the Orthodox and Protestant and Jewish positions.

To read this, as the original poster did is ignorance. But when one goes to Catholic bashing sites for information, that is to be expected.

Look, dude... your beef is with your catechism, not me. I merely highlighted what was already written.

Take it to your Magisterium, not me. Seems plainly written to me.

Thanks - much clearer now. Really strange post, in a pretty big day for weird posts.

Just seems to me that we Christians should be looking for greater unity in these days instead of looking for a fight amongst each other.

Funny story: my Great-Grandfather was a resolute and fiercely unreconstructed German Dunker Baptist in Iowa in the 1850s but while I was investigating records I discovered that he, a wealthy man, had donated the tract of land for the Roman Catholic church in town.

Early ecumenism, I guess.
