“Actually it is RCs who have much engaged in posting pro-Catholic and anti-protestant articles here, far more than articles promoting Protestantism and against Catholicism”.

Absolutely false and you know it. Catholics never rant and rave and put down protestants. But they do stand up for their faith. All they have to do is post anything about the Catholic Church and the usual suspects on FR attack them like a pack of rabid wolves. Nothing to do with Catholicism can be posted without the belittling and putting down and making fun of anything and everything Catholic.

Protestant-guilt is a hell of a thing and Catholics have been putting up with these adolescent temper tandrums for 500 years.

Said he who JUST got done posting:

No one can depart from the teaching of Catholic truth without loss of faith and salvation.”

~ Pope Pius XII

“He who is separated from the body of the Catholic Church, however laudable his conduct may otherwise seem, will never enjoy eternal life, and the anger of God remains on him by reason of the crime of which he is guilty in living separated from Christ.” ~ St. Augustine & the Council of Cirta (412 AD).

Who is the one here being "absolutely false" and knowing it???

I get it that you claim to be a failed Protestant and believe you have found the "true faith" in Roman Catholicism, but it looks like a case where former smokers make the most obnoxious anti-smoking advocates, it seems like you have a "guilt trip" of your own to deal with. We KNOW from God's word that it is faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior that gives salvation. This grace is no more available ONLY through the Catholic Church as it was through Judaism BEFORE Christ came. A relationship with God is by grace THROUGH faith and those who sincerely come to Christ can NEVER be cast out from His family, the Body of Christ. Redirect that guilt and anger to defending Jesus Christ instead of a church.

Rather, it is your absolute statement that is absolutely false, and i know it and can show it, while your denial of what i said has no more substance than your last assertion that Catholics make of up to 50% of the military, versus what substantiation shows. We are still waiting for your source for that one.

First, you ambiguously use "rant and rave" to describe posting pro-Catholic and anti-protestant articles, while just a quick search will evidence Catholic attacks on Protestants and putting them down, such as.

Sola Scriptura and Protestantism’s Hermeneutical Chaos

The Barren Harvest of Protestantism

Thomas A. Droleskey on the Lies of Protestantism

Why Only Catholicism Can Make Protestantism Work

First the Protestants, Now the Cults

Can Protestantism Really Co-exist with Conservatism

One Hundred Fifty Reasons I'm Catholic -- And You Should Be Too!

Converting Protestants [to Catholicism]

The Idealization of Protestantism [attack by Fathers Rumble & Carty]

St. John Neumann Confronts the Protestants

There are many more, and I am not going to advertize the above pro-Catholic and anti-protestant articles, but Google each (select and right click) and you can find them. And also about a 100 conversion stories to Catholicism.

Plus posts by Catholics broadly attacking protestants, even saying that protestantism IS NOT Christianity and that it should be wiped out.

All they have to do is post anything about the Catholic Church and the usual suspects on FR attack them like a pack of rabid wolves.

Translated, all they have to do is post anything about the Catholic Church under the premise that it alone is the one true church to whom all are to submit, and that Prot churches are not worthy of the name church, then they find this presumption challenged and attacked. (And besides articles as above, the over 200 articles just on the pope in the past 30 days, with RC responses, provide many things to respond to.)

As long as Rome maintains her elitist assertion and Catholics uphold it then you cannot complain that it is challenged. She is not Moses though she presumes as much, thus the ground does not swallow her enemies as the oppose her (but she honors her own in death who basically do)

Protestant-guilt is a hell of a thing and Catholics have been putting up with these adolescent temper tandrums for 500 years.

Quite a broadbrushed put down of protestants, but you and Catholics do not engage in such, and i am confident that under the biased definition of bigotry then this not any of the above would qualify.
