You can't accuse Rome of being liberal because they believe Jesus's teaching on divorce and adultery. You can't accuse Protestants of being liberal because they believe non-Christians are doomed and that Henry VIII was a righteous adulterer.

I am a Protestant, but I do believe that non-Christians can go to Heaven. What kind of loving God would send peaceful, good hearted people to Hell for eternity? Yes, we all sin and need forgiven, but I think we can be forgiven if we are humble kind people, not just those who believe in Jesus. Everyone believes their religion is the correct one, and even religious experts could debate it forever, so why punish ordinary people for not believing in one particular version? It doesn't really make sense.

There is a little misinformation in the history recollection of your statement. The pope would have you believe that only Roman Catholics that have received the holy sacrements form the Western practice of Catholicism are eligible for salvation. Otherwise, the choices are Hell, Limbo or Purgatory. Aborted babies go to Limbo. Souls with enough wealth left behind go to Purgatory.
Protestism was the first break from Slavery -- way before Rome would relinquish the vast wealth received from such practices.
Choice of the individual's own making and not a self-proclaimed authroity ,such as a priest, was the difference between the two sects you mention.

The worst church homes that have a checklist for bigotry are self sustaining Baptist, Southern Baptist, Assemblies of God, Jehovah's Witnesses, and different fundamentalist denominations. the rest are genuinely greater tolerant. maximum of those church homes are marked via a concept in Bibcal inerrancy and infalliblity, a non secular provider featuring as a rule a sermon being preached, and a condemnation of something it extremely is deemed "humanistic" as a rely of spiritual prepare.

The catholic church teaches that outside the church there's no salvation. And some prots teach that non christians can be saved.
But I think neither Henry XIII or Bill Clinton are righteous adulterers.

Matthew 7:21 says "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven." So I'd have to say that anyone who loves and serves his neighbor is doing God's will and will make it to heaven.

Call on the name of the Lord and be saved. So in a sense, non Christians can be saved, only after accepting Jesus.

Neither, religion is wrong, it is a tool created to control the masses. Live your life for you, your family and friends, not for an invisible parent figure.

Well, and both stances are false, as there is no heaven or god, or life after death.
These questions are easy to answer if you're willing to accept the truth.
