But, well, there seems to be a lot of fur flying around here.
It troubles me. We may have serious disagreements, but the kings of the earth are rising up in revolt and the princes are plotting together. The Lord may indeed have them in derision, but we'd better start learning how to play team ball.

You’ve got that right. It troubles me to see so many Christians on here with so much acrimony toward each other. We should be reminded that one of the principle reasons Islam expanded in the 7th and 8th Centuries was precisely because of derision between the Eastern, Western and African churches who would not unify against forces that burned churches and advanced by the sword. In a time when Christians of all stripes are again being persecuted, I think it is time we took the gloves off and showed each other some respect (Catholics and Protestants both). Just remember, none of you know what is in another person’s heart or how strong or weak their faith may be. You are not their judge.
