We compare our beliefs to SCRIPTURE, which is the ONLY standard by which anything is to be compared.

That bastardized book protestants call scripture? I think not. That's not scripture. Nothing but man made garbage. Who gave protestants the right to throw out books of the Bible anyway? Nobody. No authority whatsoever. Only this perverted notion of self as authority.

In your dreams. Catholics wish that were the case. It makes them feel all warm and fuzzy to think that everyone is secretly jealous over them and guilt ridden for leaving the alleged *One True Church*.

Of course they are. A willful disregard for the fullness of Truth that the Holy Roman Catholic Church provides will do that to people. That's why protestants obsess about the Church. It's not so much what they stand for but what they stand against that makes up the identity of a protestant.

Faith alone and Christ alone because it's in Scripture, not because it's in opposition to Catholicism.

Prove it. Show me in scripture where it says we're saved by Faith alone.

However, thanks for the tacit admission that Catholicism teaches that salvation is not through faith alone and not through Christ alone; that what Jesus did on the cross is not good enough to save anyone.

Now whose projecting?

Since when has the Catholic Church preached that one must be Catholic for salvation? I don’t recall any of the post Vatican II popes saying any such thing. I do hear Francis speak about how “proselytism is solemn nonsense” however. He’s all kumbaya.

I've heard of those.

Do you have any verses from them that shows a person how to get saved?
