Catholics, and many other denominations reject such a notion of necessity.Yes, some people do. You have no excuse for not knowing this..I've seen you use the term that refers to them. Amusingly, until recently, catholics...a non-trivial number of christians, believed that unbaptized children were not saved.

But even if we do assume this rigid doctrinal difference, it's still not widespread enough. 1/33,000 isn't widespread.
Oh, sorry. 3/33,000. Or 0.00009 %
Are you really going back to denying reality, dismissing your fellow believers, and generally painting a bad picture of christendom? Am I supposed to stop you from doing any of this? These differences aren't important to you, regardless of how important they may be to those who hold them - and we already know that. They are, however, precisely what you asked for, precisely what you claimed did not exist. You are not treating the subject, your own faith, with dignity or respect.
It's mission accomplished, as far as I'm concerned, when I can get a christian to treat christianity worse than I do. Carry on soldier, your service is appreciated.
