>>That is also how most evangelicals feel. <<
Seriously?!?
Because we were told by the mod that FReepers are allowed to slam the RCC because it is part of their ministry to do this.
I’m so sorry if I offended you. Seriously, that’s what I was told.
Seriously?!? I never read that.
*sigh*
I was raised Catholic but left the church back in high school. When I finally reconnected with God, I found another church that I felt more comfortable with.
I never was happy with most of the traditional Protestant Christian attitudes towards the Catholic Church. There's a of misrepresentation and poor attitude. Not having a Protestant upbringing gave me the opportunity to see it from both sides.
There are areas where I disagree with the RCC doctrine, but there are also areas where I think traditional Protestant Christianity is in no position to point fingers.
While I disagree on some doctrinal issues, that does not excuse me to be rude, and I do have the highest regard for the strong stand that the RCC takes on abortion, homosexuality, marriage, and other conservative values, that many of the mainstream Protestant Churches have abandoned in recent years.
