“Another hit piece on Protestantism.

This is akin to asking if you stopped beating your wife yet.....

It’s presuming guilt and instead of just manning up and making the accusation, it engages in major league passive/aggressive impugning of another’s character and attitude by presuming guilt and *innocently* asking a question and then putting the person so accused in a position of defending themselves against a false accusation.

And of course, when the Protestant denies hating clergy, then it’s automatically presumed that they’re lying.

It’s a disingenuous debate technique used by someone who cannot build a case on facts.”

I don’t know about you guys, but I am sure feeling the love now. How silly of me to think that Protestants hate us.

You don’t post for a whole year then post this article and worry about hate? From what I can tell Protestants don’t hate you. If they hated you they would simply allow you to stay in the errors without consistently trying to show the errors with examples from scripture.

"Protestants" not "fellow Protestants"? You've already stated that you are a first year ordained minister in a "continuing Anglican church". If that's not Protestant, what is?
