I have observed, over more than a decade participating in this forum, a strong tendency for protestants to misunderstand, misinterpret, and misrepresent comments made by Catholics. I’m not sure if it’s unconscious bigotry (”it’s from a papist, so it has to be bad”) or if it’s willful maliciousness ... but it’s unmistakable.
We all have our biases, its in our nature. Objectivity is a skill that must be practiced and self critiqued. Unobjectivity is a bad habit. I think that in too many cases the practice of parsing Scripture to validate a position can bleed over into reading the news.
