It always strikes me as interesting. Roman Catholic writings are everywhere trying to attack everything Protestants believe. Protestants spend very little time worrying about Catholics.
The RCC seems obsessed with American Protestants, Lutherans, Orthodox, Church of England,,,etc etc. Its always the same thing. Everyone else is wrong, and they are always nearly to the point of reunification with the ones who left the RCC. Or in the case of the Orthodox, those who the RCC left.
Either way, its like some nutty ex who can’t accept that it’s over. We are cordial, we don’t hate you, but no,,, we aren’t moving back in, and we are quite happy in our new life, even though you are sure we are utterly in the wrong.
It feels like you might slash our tires or something,,, do we need a restraining order?
You know, having read several tirades like this from Catholic posters, I am inclined to agree with you. The trend today, certainly in Protestantism, is for a steady decline in denominational differences, but the RCC (or at least elements within in) just doesn’t seem to want to play ball. Meanwhile secularism continues to dominate Western nations; Islam is infiltrating everywhere; an old enemy (paganism) has made a surprise comeback (in the form of wicca, hinduism, and neo-paganism) and there doesn’t seem to be any concerted response from the biggest player in Christianity.
“Protestants spend very little time worrying about Catholics”.
You want me to go back and list all the Catholic-bashing remarks from protestants on FR? 100 to 1 favor of protestants bashing anything and everything that is posted about Catholicism. Even when a Catholic Caucus thread is started you have the usual Catholic bashers weighing in to tell Catholics how wrong their faith is.
It’s called protestant guilt and it’s alive and well on FR.
I think you have that backwards. Catholics post the truth; it’s the Protestants that attack.
A brief perusal of the FR religion forum alone...Renders that a laughable statement.
