What Anti-Catholicism?

[annie]

Try living in the PROTESTANT VATICAN= Wheaton, Illinois, home of the Billy Graham museum, and more Churches per capita than any other place in the USA!

We actually teach a class for Confirmation on how to deal with Fundies/Evangelicals and their questions. Wow, even my little kids have been asked, "Are you saved"---and wouldn't you know, the one they really go after is my special needs/LD child, who can't formulate a good answer! I taught him to answer "I sure am!"

Believe me, it is weird to send your kid to school and know that although the school district is excellent, safe and really has great teachers, your kid could get invited to Awanas or some other Fundie thing, and start the path to, well you know...

As I started to visit Catholic forums on the net, I've heard people mention that they experienced  "anti-catholicism" and that it's quite rampant in some places.  I'm fortunate to never have experienced this and am wondering where exactly people have these experiences.

I've probably never experienced this partly due to where I live,  pretty much everyone in the Philadelphia area has always been Catholic, hell, Catholic High School football has it's own section in the paper! Every where you look, there is another Catholic School! My 500 acre backyard used to be owned by the Catholic Church (they just sold it).  Even in the wake of the Philly Sex abuse scandals, there's still no Anti-ism to be seen!  Am I just living in a good area????

you just haven't encountered the Iglesia Ni Cristo (Church of Christ in Tagalog)

they have a "locale" there (that would be like their parish or diocese as compared to ours)

and they are VERY anti-catholic anti-trinitarian.
