An observation....A lot of local Protestant churches--to be fair most are non-denominational instead of denominational, preach anti-Catholic rhetoric. This is evident in their youth groups as well. I don't expect any of you to acknowledge that you have personally experienced this--it would only bolster my point.
Hand to God, I have been a member of many Catholic parishes and I have never heard priests spew forth hate. In fact, in terms of disagreeing with Protestant doctrine, always done in a reverent manner.
Over the past year my kids were denied entry by a group of students in their high school to a morning prayer circle (lead by kids from New Life church in La Plata) because they were
"Catholic and not Christian." One kid told my kids that Catholics weren't allowed to cry at funerals and the only thing Catholics care about is money.
I would like to point out that this is a clear example of Protestant oral tradition. From pastor X to mommy and daddy to little Johnny.
In downtown La Plata a local store front church regularly demonstrates with signs at the intersection of 6/301 against the Catholic Church.
I was told recently by a child staying the night at our house that the Catholic Church is not a
Christian Church because it doesn't have full immersion baptism and altar calls. Again, she is a product of a non-denom youth group. Can you imagine a child who is a guest in your house telling you that your religion is a cult (except for Starman's kids)?
These churches are turning out little hate mongers instead of proclaimers of the Gospels.

That applies to my post as well.....except that I am from the south.
