If it is legitimate for an RC to point at "Protestantism" and say "See how divided they are?"

No true Catholic ever rejoices over the division of Christians. In fact, there are days in the Catholic Liturgical Year assigned for the prayer of Christian Unity.

Our Lord's will was "that they may be one."

See now, if you were to say that to all the enthusiastic RC's I'm talking about, they'd tell you you were a hate-filled ignorant bigot. QED per some of the responses in this thread.

What would constitute an answer to that prayer, from the Catholic perspective? IOW, what does "Christian Unity" mean to the Catholics that pray for it?

The Catholic Church states again and again in its teachings that it will bring the Good News of Jesus Christ to all in the human race.
