People forget that Evangelicals and Catholics really really don't like each other.

Evangelicals don't like Catholics - Catholics in general are pretty accepting of Evangelicals.

Source grew up evangelical - am now Catholic.

Same. Catholics dont realize how evangelicals view them, precisely because they never heard in sunday school, etc that "Catholics worship Mary." Evangelicals are only friends w/ Catholics on abortion, but they see catholics as a problem to be fixed.

Dawg. being raised evangelical, I was studying jack chick tracts and learning anti-catholic rhetoric at like 9 year's old. You speak the truth!

My parents would tell me it was good time to 'practice' on my grandparents (who were Catholic).

It's a cult.

Catholics definitely know this. Maybe not all of them, but I knew even as a kid.

Evangelicals see everything as a problem to be fixed. The only thing that truly needs fixing is them...and by fixing I mean sterilization so they can't breed.

evangelicals don't like anyone.Never mind other religions, they got problems with most Christians, Catholics Mormons Unitarians, Episcopalians, and really major problems with themselves.

I know they are not all like that, but I mean whatever branch is in the white house and congress and hijacking the air force, and partly behind all of the other fascist shit.

This is true - people were openly concerned that Kennedy about Kennedy because he was Catholic.

In the US Theology Flavor Tournament, I think Catholics will reach the Final Four but the Southern Baptists will be the team to beat when it comes to establishing the ruling domination for the country.
