While you try to help your comrades by empty assertions of falsehood, for my substantiated conclusions are not erroneous, the reality is that the RCs at issue have been reduced to resorting to ad hominem attacks, including one referring to links as “uneducated” which refute them while admitting he/she they will not even look at them.

As for your questions about Swedenborg, you are late to this debate, and here is a link that would help educate you on what we refer to as the borg: http://peacebyjesus.tripod.com/swedenborg.html.

And rather than Luther having Swedenborg as company, whose rejection of most of the N.T. (and half the Prot Bible in total) was in contrast to Luther whose exclusion had ancient support (and Rome also rejected books the Orthodox hold to), the Borg essentially operates more according to Rome in that it adds more books, equating another source of revelation as equal to Scripture (like the LDS), and exalts Swedenborg as a type of infallible pope. But which we do not presume to do, unlike cults, but instead evangelicals must appeal to Scripture as supreme and seek to persuade souls based on substantiation thereby, after the Biblical manner.

And despite tribal divisions in the “nation” evangelicals also manifest greater quality unity in core truths and moral/political views than what Catholicism produces among its people, esp. the Roman division, which are more like their institutionalized cousins who call Protestant.

Really? Like the Oneness Pentecostal disbelief in the Trinity -- or how about the Seventh Day Adventist belief that Satan is jesus' brother

Nope, utter divisions in core doctrine
