under the non-Catholic/Orthodox/Oriental umbrella there are many many groups with divergent, disperse and contradictory beliefs.
For those religious groups that hold to the tenets of belief that are encapsulated in the Nicene creed (namely belief in ONE God: Father-Son-Holy Spirit, belief that Jesus Christ is Lord, God and Savior) we in orthodoxy say that these are not "going to heck" just because they were born into those faiths.
These -- and they include all traditional Anglicans, LCMS, WELS etc Lutherans, Methodists, Baptists, Presbyterians, etc. who believe in these beliefs, they "who believe in Christ and have been properly baptized are put in a certain, although imperfect, communion with the Catholic Church." -- that is what we believe
.
Now, there are other groups who either call themselves Protestants or are called that -- whether they be Adventists or Unitarians or something similar -- they deny these basic tenets of faith, denying Christ as Lord, God and Savior or ascribing Him as a secondary god or a created being. While we do not say "you gonna go to heck" as we do not know their hearts, we DO believe that the philosophy they hold to is hell-bound. To individuals -- we cannot read their minds so it is between them and GodAs SD pointed out, please do not say "you believe this" and then argue when we say "sorry, we do not, you are ascribing a wrong belief to us"
Do you normally post in the middle of the night?
Whatever. You are the THIRD Catholic on this thread to spout all your papal dogma, catechisms, Nicene Creeds and that sort of stuff to me in your lame attempt to show that the Catholic Church is the “ONE True Church” and if one is not a Catholic then we are “imperfectly linked” to that “true” church.
Are you getting a clue yet? You are a RELIGOUS BIGOT. (And yes - you can tattle on me to the RM if you want. I see you’ve already been there this morning.)
You can take your smug sanctimonious brand of religion and .... (You finish the thought)
