The West experienced it’s own version of iconoclasts

Those were the equivalent of Dan Brown novels — inaccuracies that lead to worse

Another day, another flamebait thread....

That should be your tagline.

I didn't know it had been that bad . . . But thanks for the ping.

***And, as I understand it, the Catholic church has for centuries claimed anyone outside the church to be anathema and worthy of death (council of Trent (?)), and although not discussed in public, that accusation is still valid today...***

Nice to see that the level of your understanding continues on at a relatively even level. http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/15030c.htm may help raise that level.

***The West experienced it’s own version of iconoclasts***

You betcha. The reaction to the prayer card of Mary of Guadelupe if one on one is normally respectful and verges on the reverent even for the radical evangelists; however if they are in a group - in public where they face each other - then the derision begins.

It’s like the old joke:

Where is the only place in the world that one Baptists does not recognize another Baptist?
