What would the RCC's like to experience, receive, have from dialogue, interaction etc. from the Evangelicals and other Protestants during this trying time?

Respect. Part of respect is not trying to tell us what we believe. (Not referring to you here, Jocko, but to certain others I have no desire to name. They know who they are.)

It should be possible for anyone here who has ever served in the military to understand the concept of "saluting the uniform" and apply that to understanding how Catholics can be loyal to the Papacy in the abstract, and loyal to this Pope in particular, as long as he acts within the bounds of his office and his charism.

When he goes astray from that, we have every right to ignore him (e.g., in re "global warming") when he's speaking of things not germane to the faith, and oppose him "to his face" when he teaches things that are inimical to the faith.

Problem with this is Unam Sanctam. It claimed authority for the pope over the spiritual and temporal powers....unless you're willing to say Unam Sanctam is somehow void.

If the Pope’s were ordained by God as vicar of Christ
wouldn’t that be just like ignoring Christ?
