That's not how some Christians see it. One of my best friends is a non-Catholic Christian (Baptist I think? Her entire family is deeply religious and quite conservative as a result) and they don't understand all the saints, nor do they try to. It looks like saint-worship to them, and they just find it weird.

Does having strong faith in a religion mean you close your mind to everything else? Is everyone who isn't of your faith just plain wrong?
