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

    I don’t really know all the details dude… My answer was just based on observations I have made in America (north and south)

    I do not think Eastern Orthodox counts as “Christians” either btw

    In any case, there may be no logical reason as I believe it is just a matter of misuse of the terms… Exactly how an “American” is interpreted as “from the USA” and not “from any country in the American continent” which is actually the meaning
