Christ himself stated that the truth of the Gospel would have a polarising effect. How you fail to notice this is quite beyond me.
The churches of Christendom have watered down the word of God with secularism so that they produce a kind of insipid lukewarm namby pambiness where morality plays second fiddle to all inclusiveness, where you go to ch ...[text shortened]... ed acceptance of the gospel and its practical application would have.
Paul goes even further.

But are non-Catholic Christians regarded as Christians by Catholics?
One person will believe without a doubt that you must speak in tongues to be a Christian (Penticostals). Another will tell you, you can only worship God on Saturday (as the true day of worship). Or have a specific name for God, and so on.
Honestly, God looks at us silly humans, shakes His head, and says, "I can't wait for My children to just Love. "
In all the churches you will find concepts that boggle the mind. And all the churches feel "they are the true one" And all the churches argue that God loves them the most.
The fact is that God loves all of them, all of His children, equally.
And when I speak of God's children, every human on the planet are His children, whether you know Him or not.

Or non-American Christians (God forbid) are still Christians!!
In fact you could make this argument for any sub-set of Christians.
Does that mean that all Christians are Christians? 🙄

The "ones"? Are you talking about Indonesian Catholics or Indonesian Christians? There are of course many Christians here who look upon Muslims as infidels. A lot of religionists take up an exclusivist position about their own faith, Christians and Muslims alike.
Do let us know when you come back to this planet, okay?
