Protestantism [...] is on a centrifugal trajectory even in relation to itself, let alone the historical apostolic churches.

What exactly is that supposed to mean?

The hostility that evangelical Christian often have to Catholic mariology are a sure sign that it is familial unity under the motherhood of Mary that they fear.

No. There is no fear involved. The entirety of Catholic mariology, and prayers to saints in general, are without Biblical standing, and are offensive to the singular redemption and intercessory power of Christ.

I remain entirely unconvinced, as are my fellows, I am sure. There will be no reunion as long as the Catholics insist upon such heresies.

[...]and a figure who inspires a great devotion among the Muslim.

Mohammedanism is decidedly *not* a religion based upon the God Jehovah, nor is it of His Son.

Could anything be further from the truth, Roamer? It boggles the imagination to even imagine how folks could come up with such far fetched farcical notions.

What exactly is [centrifugal trajectory of Protestantism] supposed to mean?

20 c has seen proliferation of diverse Protestaqnt groups, such as fundamentalist evangelicalism, further splintered into adherents of diverse eschatological beliefs, neo-judaizing sects such as Pastor Hagee, liberal wings of preexisting Protestant communities that consecrate gay "marriages", new "prosperity gospel" theologies, etc.

The entirety of Catholic mariology, and prayers to saints in general, are without Biblical standing, and are offensive to the singular redemption and intercessory power of Christ.

This is a display of ignorance and rejection of Chrisatian mariological tradition and Mary in the scripture, which in itself shows how there could be no unity without Mary.

Mohammedanism is decidedly *not* a religion based upon the God Jehovah

They say it is, and it is called abrahamic religion -- I did not invent the term.
