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.
It makes perfect sense. I’m not sure if you’re reading it wrong, or being obtuse ... but I shall assume the former. I’ll just ignore the “remedial logic” pot-shot. Good grief.
I personally do not believe either statement (”Protestants are heretics”, “Catholics are idolators”) is bigoted. I believe both statements are simply vehement doctrinal disagreements.
Is it your position that one of those statements is bigoted and unacceptable, and the other is neither bigoted nor unacceptable? On what basis?
