That's antipapist and wrong. I'm not going to take it seriously.

Do I think the word-faith movement is stupid? Absolutely. Anyone with a basic grasp of Judeo-Christian principles would. That doesn't mean I think that website is legitimate.
This tension among the overarching sects of Christianity has existed for CENTURIES! You can't possibly disregard all information presented by non-Catholics simply because they refute Catholic teachings.

Scholarly work requires us to consider, evaluate and weigh all positions, even while - perhaps - not agreeing with their viewpoints. "antipapist and wrong" does not equal "I'm not going to take it seriously." Agree to disagree and move on!!

When I asked for evidence regarding "antipapist suck," I was looking for evidence in their pages on things other than Catholicism. Of course they're going to present contrary views because the Christian church is hopelessly splintered and fights itself!
