One thing I do like about Presbyterians, they want peace in the Middle East, and they are quite "works oriented" in this sense.

Not really directed at anyone. But I've heard evangelicals say that "Catholics aren't saved", so they go to hell. Lutherans, Presbyterians, Episcopals (and I'm sure others) also go through confirmation rather than the "alter call - repent and get saved" method. But if you look at what confirmation is, it's the same thing as "getting saved". I personally think it's all semantics and tradition. I guess I was wondering if my thoughts were true. Not that I care... I'm not changing churches!
