>>> If an accusation of heresy against Protestants is not bigoted, then neither is an accusation of idolatry against Catholics.
>> It is an irrational non-sequitur to say that Catholics are idol worshippers if protestants are heretics.
Reread the original statement. Terrible paraphrase — that isn’t what I said AT ALL. I said ... if the statement “Protestants are heretics” does not constitute bigotry, then the statement “Catholics are idol worshipers” also does not constitute bigotry.
One cannot object to only the latter of the two.

You made an “if...then” argument, in which the second does not follow the first. It is a non-sequitur. It is illogical.
ie: If A does not equal B, then C does not equal D.
Makes no sense. If you cannot understand that, perhaps remedial logic would help.
