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

      What I think they meant was that categorizing Catholicism as a seperate religion from Protestantism while Prostestantism claims Christianity makes no sense considering that Catholicism has an older claim to being Christian.

      So, if anyone shouldn’t be able to claim “Christianity” because of being a new, differentiated religion then it should be Protestants. Using that logic it should be “Christians and Protestants”.

      But I agree, they are all in fact Christians.
