I just don’t get why the Protestant FReepers who think that they are absolutely right in their faith, would be offended when Catholics think the same.

I don't know of any who are myself. But reverse the nouns...

"I just don’t get why the Catholic FReepers who think that they are absolutely right in their faith, would be offended when Protestants think the same."
...and I can think of a dozen Catholic FReepers (some now banned) who this describes perfectly.

Really, there are threads that go back and forth about converts.

I have no problem with a Protestant being strong in his/her beliefs. However, when one brings those beliefs in to tell another that they are wrong, then it becomes a problem to me.

I know I’m probably an idiot but I’m just not sure that I know the absolute truth for anyone but me. I know what I think is right. Bible Christians know the Word of God and are confident enough to tell us we are wrong.

Catholics are only confident enough to tell you how we are right. It may not look it on the surface, but there is a big differece. We defend our position when told we are wrong, but personally I’m not bright enough to tell you how wrong your are. I pray and trust God to sort out the rest.
