I hate all Catholics because they say I’m going to hell because I am not Catholic. Of course this is not true but the Catholic teaching has been that all non-Catholics are going to hell.

Don’t know where you came up with that one, but I know it’s a prominent belief among nonCatholics.

Don’t know where that comes from but the official Catechism of the Catholic Church states [61] “Believing in Jesus Christ and the One who sent him for our salvation is necessary for receiving that salvation.” That’s the catholic teaching.

Sorry, I cannot join you in your hate-fest, I follow Jesus Christ and He loves them AND us. I bet you didn’t mean to use such a strong word anyways, am I corect?

Oh, THAT's a real Christian statement.

Of course this is not true but the Catholic teaching has been that all non-Catholics are going to hell.

No one knows where they are going upon the flesh's passing. We Catholics certainly don't. This morning, the priest's homily was very much about this and he said, isn't it wonderful that only God will be our judge on that matter. It's true. We just have to live by His commands and hope that our sins are forgiven when the time comes.
