  • Maybe you meant Protestants seem more loving than Traditional Catholics? 
    Because actually, Novus Ordos are very similar to Protestants in their ‘love’, or ‘charity’. But most of the time it is only a facade. More of a human respect kind of thing. 

    True Charity, as in Love of God and your neighbor for the sake of God, is a very rare thing these days. The lack of True Charity is a sign of a Chastisment coming soon. 
    We need to change this though and it starts with us.  :incense: :pray:

  • Which of the hundreds of Protestant sects are you referring to?
    If anyone says that true and natural water is not necessary for baptism and thus twists into some metaphor the words of our Lord Jesus Christ" Unless a man be born again of water and the Holy Spirit" (Jn 3:5) let him be anathema.

  • Protestants are great at love-bombing and providing a happy-clappy fun-church atmosphere for all. That's why the NO is (has?) morphing (-ed?) into a protestant church-- it keeps seats warm. The worship in most protestant churches, especially evangelical ones, centers mostly on fellowship and whipping up the emotions through singing and group praise- kind of a happy mass hysteria with raised hands and swaying, 'falling-in-the-spirit', 'speaking in tongues' etc. Trads,on the other hand,  attend Mass to worship Christ, receive the Sacraments, practice obedience, hear correct teaching and remain in a state of grace. We treat the Mass with solemnity and reverence  because we know Christ is truly present in the Eucharist.

    True love- or "charity" as we call it, sometimes means correcting each other when we show ourselves to be in error regarding Catholic understanding or behavior, so that the soul isn't lost to Hell... and that's definitely not happy-clappy fun-time.

    So that may be why protestants "seem" more "loving" at first glance. They're great at parties.

    ( But then, we Catholics have been known to throw some pretty spectacular wakes... ;))

    It's worse that that, for each "Protestant" is his own church of one, so there really are as many Protestant sects as there are Protestants.
    The Vatican II church - Assisting Souls to Hell Since 1962

    For there shall arise false Christs and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders, insomuch as to deceive (if possible) even the elect. Mat 24:24

    I find a lot of protestants .. generally speaking are more down to earth and caring than... most Cathlics I have known.
    and yet as you imply here... it is not deep affection or real love a lot of the time..
    bc as soon as you say you are Catholic... oh lordy!
    out goes the charity
    but not always of course
