Those "Christians" are misinformed and ignorant. They usually get their information regarding Catholicism from their Protestant minister or even better, Dan Brown. What is sad is they are usually not interested in learning about what Catholicism teaches (which - hey - is not a big secret. It's all out there) They are quite happy with their misinformation and holier-than-thou piety.(see HOW TO GET TO HEAVEN WHEN YOU DIE for a fine example) It's truly sad. Just say a Hail Mary for them.
eta - I'll have to see if I can find it - there was a video of a Baptist minister who was quite upset at Baptists who wear choir robes. Apparently, that made them almost Catholic. My great - grandmother's comment when learning about my mother when she was engaged to my dad - "Bobby, what religion is she?" "Episcopalian". "That's almost as bad as a Catholic!"
