xins HATES when you supply facts....he just doesn’t like to deal with such. Don’t waste your time

Truth hurts, and I can understand that. The elements of what constituted the Church for the last 2,000 years is lacking in Protestant/Baptist communities. Unfortunately, for the last 40 or so years of ecumnism they have gotten accustomed to being "included" in this syncretistic falsehood that took over the western world and a sad but obvious "protestantization" of the Catholic Church for some time after the Vatican II.

Oh my!

This kind of "warm, welcoming, we care about you and your salvation" post should definitely bring the whole Protestant/Baptist communities flocking back to the Catholic Church quickly.

Is this really how you wish for Catholics to present themselves to Protestants/Baptists?

Could you define for me what you feel will be the result if these Protestant/Baptist communities fail to "return to" the Catholic Church?

That is the very same attitude which gave us the inquisitions... the jailings of 'non' Catholics for doctrinaire reasons, and the heavy handed tactics which was used by the Roman Catholic Church through the centuries.

I certainly don't hold that against any Catholics of today, as those acts were perpetrated by men, not the Holy Spirit.

I love my Catholic brothers in Christ, and believe them to be genuine Christians.
