Kim,

Even if he did to say that, it would be consistent with the Council of Trent. Why would you think it would be uncivil for him to express the belief that Protestants are unsaved? I would cartainly hope it would not seem uncivil to OrthodoxCatholic if we were to say we believe Catholicism is a false Gospel and cannot save. Although, we'd need to say WHY we believe thusly and explain the centrality of sola fide, sola gratia, Sola Scriptura, etc.

True godliness is a sincere feeling which loves God as Father as much as it fears and reverences Him as Lord, embraces His righteousness, and dreads offending Him worse than death~ Calvin
