When protestants argue with catholics, do you find it silly?

Also, when muslims argue with christians, or everyone gangs up on mormons and JW's or pagans, does it make you laugh?

To me it almost seems like two nerds arguing about whether Kirk or Picard would win in a fist fight.

    Human Nature - uncomplicated and straightforward. one and all desires to argue who's superb, that's "thee one" and what's nice and who's incorrect. think of roughly it.... Which soccer group is the wonderful? Which comedy is the funniest? Which movie star had the wonderful gown on the Oscars? Did that movie star or activities athlete fairly do this? In employer, what technique is the wonderful? etc. etc. etc. people are large at filtering ideas, leaping to conclusions and making experience of a great type of archives. in case you learn Neurology or Cognotive Psychology... you will see that our minds are ok adapted at generalizing archives and making rapid checks. regrettably, our tendency to generalize, type by archives, summarize, and arrive promptly at conclusions.. often cases, reasons us to argue and be judgemental, and to be extreme. regrettably we use our understanding to bicker among ourselves over WHICH interpretation of scripture is nice. What ritual is superb. How some distance you could nevertheless bypass formerly they bypass too some distance. and WHO grew to become into first and who's "greater remarkable" then the different guy. we are in a position to work out how this type of element applies VERY directly to the arguments against Protestants and Catholics. i'm to blame as everyone else. who's closest to the 1st Christians? what's the the wonderful option meaning of John 6 - the bread of existence discourse? what's the the wonderful option thank you to divide up the verses used to create the ten commandments?

    Religion is the cause of all wars and hatred, I rather be spiritual then follow someone elses cults like Chatholics/Christians do as for Protestants there is a huge difference in the two, they are not tight wads like the Catholics, their more open minded and they believe ministers can be married, your not confined in more of a controling environment as the Catholics.

    Yes, it's silly but I don't laugh. Because I'm one of the pagans you mentioned and being discriminated against really isn't funny. I'm lucky that people aren't very religious here in England but in the South and Mid West of America it can get really bad.

    Yeah- the catholic vs all other christians is a bit silly.

    I sometimes stand up for the catholic church when the statement is a lie. I have NP with anyone making fun of it if it's the truth though.

    culturally catholic- ex catholic

    I'll place my bet on Kirk

    It make me laugh, and angry at the same time for the truth is that we as Christians should look at ourselves in how we want to worship our Lord God in our own way. In each of our religion that is leading to God and how we keep our faith in each of our religion for all religion does how some truth in all of them. God Bless I am a Catholic Christian. For I believe anyone who is arguing over religion is try to brainwash other and me into their faith and to join their Church! Instead of understand we have our own beliefs in our own faith, and How we should pray is up to all of us.

    So let the Protestants start arguing all they want against us Catholics. We Catholics will win at the end and finish the argument and win the war.

    God Bless

    It just seems to be a part of human nature. We have always had an alliance to something whether it be football ,country, family or church.

    It is always us and them.

    The tendency is to try and win you over to our team or else.

    ** I need to go with Kirk such a hottie...then.
