“That presumes that both are Christians...”

“And Christ also come to bring division, which enables unity...”

++

Okey dokey.

Now I know that you don’t consider me to be Christian since I’m Catholic and so you don’t think that Christ’s command that we love one another applies to me.

Looks like my final sentence which you didn’t quote is correct:

As a Catholic, I will defend Protestant Christians, but I believe that there are Protestants who will not defend me.

Care to show us where he stated that or even implied that if you are Catholic, then you aren't a Christian?

What glowing palather! Daniel1212 will defend fellow Christians, but in typical catholiciism conflation you would dictate that he must therefore defend your ism. Catholicism is not Christianity. IF you ever awaken to that TRUTH, you can become a Christian. There is one tiny step you can take to get you awake ... stop conflating The Church Jesus is still building, with the institution named Catholicism which cannot save you. Once awake you will note that there are Christians in the Catholic congregations, but they are there as attendees to an institutional process, not because of that institutional process making them born again. When you figure that one out, you might just choose to be born from above yet remain in your institution ... God knows your needs better than you do.

That is simply too much an ambiguous and broad statement. Certainly i could defend you in arguing about one of the many Truths we both concur on, but not in defending Catholicism in general. And many of the latter here do indeed seem to wish for the ways and means of the blood inquisitions. And the SSPX type certainly do not believe we can be saved as evangelicals, while salvation is possible for certain Caths, but sadly i think it is a relatively rare case among Catholics in this country.
