Some Catholics hate Protestants. Some don’t.
Some Protestants hate Catholics. Some don’t.
Sounds simple enough to me. Either ignore those who do hate, try to correct them if it’s misguided, or hate right back.
I’d prefer either option one or two.
I assume that a number of RC’s are quite capable of hating infanticide without hating the murderers. After all, Christ commands us to love our enemies.
I know that quite a number of us Prottys are, by God’s Grace capable of loving individuals while hating habits, customs, idolatries of every stripe etc.
The fact that hereon some RC’s seem to be unwilling and/or incapable of relating to Prottys from that perspective is fascinating, to a point.
The fact that some RC’s hereon DEMAND that Prottys accept and respect the RC’s description of the RC’s inner heart attitudes, motives, perspectives vis a vis Mary while refusing to accept Protty’s insistences that we do not hate any individual RC’s hereon . . . is further more than a little fascinating in it’s dukplicitousness.
It’s also an interesting experience of denial, group-think; in-group vs out-group hostilities etc.
My 2 cents, of course.
