“Yet you say that baptism saves you.”

It’s grace, yes.

“You can’t be UNSAVED if a Catholic?”

Anyone can lose their salvation by refusing God’s grace through their lack of faith and sin. A Catholic cannot wash away his baptism. He can, however, sin and go to hell.

Everyone in Heaven is Catholic (Catholic by God’s grace in some way if not by the grace of Baptism). Not everyone in Hell is Catholic, but plenty of Catholics will be there.

So baptism saves you except when it doesn’t.

Only someone brainwashed could rationalize Catholic thinking like that.
