Ok fine metmom. So we live in a majority Protestant country right? So why did Protestants legalize abortion? Why did they legalize gay marriage in some states? Why did they encourage and defend slavery?
What's that? These were people who were Christian/Protestant in name only doing this? The respective denominations had nothing to do with it? Oh sure....blame everyone but the Protestant churches right?
Is logic so dead that we can't understand the basic idea that religious *people* can be jackasses even when the religion itself isn't condoning it? Seriously?
You mean like Pelosi, Kennedy, Kerry, etc., all offically pro-abort Catholics who the RCC has not yet taken any official action on?
When all Catholics vote conservative and the Catholic church ex-communicates those well known Catholic politicians who support and pass legislation to further the leftist, socialist agenda, then you can point fingers.
Why? Because as people sinful Protestants are no different than sinful Catholics. You know, the priests who take celibacy vows and have sex with any and eveything. The Inquisition and murder of hundreds of thousands of people in the name of Christ. Or just wanting a bible in their own native tongue, maybe getting a chance to read it. Propping up the nazis as the national church.
We all can point to problems in each others’ religious histories. To say that invalidates one branch of Christendom, it must invalidate all then.
