Protestantism is a "scourge on humanity"? A bit offensive, don't you think?
No, I don't think it's offensive....it's true....and if you are a non-Catholic Christian then you are indeed a protestant.

First, let me congratulate you on being honest on your false claim about Protestantism.

From the RM guidelines: "...when a poster paints with a brush that accuses an entire religion..."

Second, your statement posted as fact that "if you are a non-Catholic Christian then you are indeed a protestant" has been explained many times.

A fact is that I and many others-OTC's-posting here are not Protestants.

Broadbrushing all non Catholics as being Protestants is false, in error, wrong, inaccurate and a misstatement.

Try to remember that, OK?

That being said, thank you for not including me and some of my fellow Christians as a ""scourge on humanity"

I think I know where MormonISM got some of it's tactics...

Brigham Young stated this repeatedly:

"When the light came to me I saw that all the so-called Christian world was grovelling in darkness" (Journal of Discourses 5:73);

"The Christian world, so-called, are heathens as to the knowledge of the salvation of God" (Journal of Discourses 8:171);

"With a regard to true theology, a more ignorant people never lived than the present so-called Christian world" (Journal of Discourses 8:199);

"And who is there that acknowledges [God's] hand? ...You may wander east, west, north, and south, and you cannot find it in any church or government on the earth, except the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints" (Journal of Discourses , vol. 6, p.24);

"Should you ask why we differ from other Christians, as they are called, it is simply because they are not Christians as the New Testament defines Christianity" (Journal of Discourses 10:230)

Broadbrushing all non Catholics as being Protestants is false, in error, wrong, inaccurate and a misstatement.

No it isn't...if you PROTEST the true church of Christ, you are a Protestant.....nothing wrong with that, but a descriptive adjective...
