“Protestants are my brothers and sisters in Christ.”

So you are united to protesters? But the very term, “Protestant” necessarily means protester. Yet you claim that you are not a protester (one who argues) because that sows more anger and discord than understanding.

Then why do you argue with the Catholic Church by so saying, for the Catholic Church teaches that Protestants are not in Christ. You can look it up from the mouth of Popes prior to 1959, as they argued against the Protestants being our brothers and sistes.

(That hails back to post number 19 where is presented the idea that the Vatican II Church is at war with the true Catholic Church.)

Now you don’t dare argue with me or you will be doing what you said you are opposed to doing!

Well, it's a good thing we don't have to rely upon what the pope says.

I'm counting on the truth of what Jesus said as recorded by John.

24“Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life. John 5:24 NASB

Do you believe this?

I’m not going to argue with you.

Peace be with you.

Do you not object to immorality and corruption and the abuses of indulgences by the popes of the day that incited the protests?

Would you NOT have protested that within the church? Does that mean it's OK with you?
