Is this some sort of remnant of evangelical puritan protestant ideology?

I don’t understaun this.

If you ask me, it’d make as much sense as Orthodox and Christians… or Shia and Muslim…

I know not all Christians are Catholics but for feck’s sake…

They’re all Christians to me…

Edit:

It’s a U.S thing but this is the sort of things I hear…

I am a Catholic. Why should I consider becoming a Christian?

I now know more distinctions (apparently Catholicism requires duty and salvation is process, unlike Protestantism?) but I still think they’re of a similar branch (Christianity) so I just wonder the social factor

    Jesse, WTF are you talking about

    I’ve never heard the phrase Catholic and Christians before. Catholic vs Protestant maybe.

      I worked with a Southern Baptist guy who legitimately thought Catholic aren’t real Christians.

      I have no idea how he thought Southern Baptism is somehow more Christian than the much much older version.
