been around a VERY long time and for the first 50+ years I NEVER heard a Catholic refer to or about ANY protestant in ANY conversation.
you flatter yourself if you think Catholics think or care about their separated brethren.
why should we - your saved - right?
For the Greater Glory of God

Well if I disagreed with the Church on even ONE teaching I would get down on my knees and beg the a Holy Spirit for understanding so I COULD CONFORM MYSELF TO THAT TEACHING.

Get out yer kneepads!
O sorrowful Mother! intercede for our separated brethren, that with us in the one true fold they may be united to the supreme Shepherd, the Vicar of thy Son.
Even in the beginnings of this one and only Church of God there arose certain rifts, which the Apostle strongly condemned. But in subsequent centuries much more serious dissensions made their appearance and quite large communities came to be separated from full communion with the Catholic Church - for which, often enough, men of both sides were to blame. The children who are born into these Communities and who grow up believing in Christ cannot be accused of the sin involved in the separation, and the Catholic Church embraces upon them as brothers, with respect and affection. For men who believe in Christ and have been truly baptized are in communion with the Catholic Church even though this communion is imperfect.
