>>Of course not all evangelicals are "anti-Catholic" but likewise, if they believed the Roman Catholic doctrine was the full truth they would be Catholic.<<

So why would any Evangelical who saw that graphic be offended by it, it he/she was not Anti-Catholic?
Would anyone be offended if it said "Anti-Christian"?

>>That, IMHO, is the great value of the Religion forum - to help other posters and lurkers "work out their own salvation" (Phl 2:12)<<

Somehow, I don't see where insulting another denomination helps with ANYONE's salvation. Allowing that insult without retrobution is hard to understand. When someone believes in Sola Scriptura how does that give them any right to insult a Jewish person's beliefs?

Atheists, for instance, might be offended. Your moniker and graphic is fine by me as is any offense atheists or anti-Catholics or anti-Christians might take from it. It is ok because it is not a personal attack.

Free speech in the town square. The Jewish person may also insult the Sola Scriptura belief.

As long as it is not a "churchy" thread and as long as it is not personal, not racist, not anti-Semitic, not violent, not obscene, etc. - I will not pull it.
