Our Holy Father was so right…It is important for us to remember to focus on that which binds us, and pray that those things that divide us will someday no longer do so.
Someone on this thread has said that all Protestants are heretics…I take offense at that. The Protestants of today are not heretics, because, for the great part, they have not turned away from the teachings of the Catholic Church…They have simply been born into their faith, as we all have, and have never known the “fullness of faith” that “subsists” within the Catholic Church (Lumen Gentium). One cannot deny a truth one has never known. (see CCC 2089)
**I know many Protestants…mostly Evangelicals, and they are, indeed, Christians…Their faith in and love for Jesus is not to be belittled, but admired. **
