If anyone is pagan, it is those like yourselves who worship your hatred of anything that smacks of the Catholicism rather than God.

Oh, look, someone playing the hatred card. The Roman system and everything that derives from it is corrupt.

I refer you to a far more learned man than myself on the matter: Ian Paisley, Baron Bannside.

And you cite Ian Paisley as your source. The Rev. Paisley has been a hatemonger since day one who was a mirror image of the Irish Republican Army during “the troubles” in Northern Ireland.

The Orthodox are NOT part of the “Roman system” as you put it.

The so-called “Reformation” resulted in an overreaction to the corruption of the late medieval Western Church and the establishment of a new religion.

“Romanism” and Protestantism are two sides to the same Scholastic coin. One adds while the other denies. Eastern Christianity is built on an entirely different foundation.

Explain something to me. Why is it the countries in Europe that were formerly Calvinist or Lutheran are now the most secularized and apostate?

It seems to me that your argument is a bit like the pot calling the kettle black.
