Actually, insulting them IS giving them reasons to NOT join.
Why would I want to affiliate myself with a group that treats outsiders so?
My point exactly. The raw arrogance on display is astounding. Why not just make every post, “If you ain’t Catholic, you ain’t $h—! Oh, and God condemns you b/c you don’t subscribe to our bureaucracy”? That’s the message every time, and it’s just incredible.
Last I checked Protestants and Catholics believe in the Bible, the Trinity, and Christ as the sole path to salvation. What’s the problem here?
