I was raised funditard Pentecostal. I heard this a LOT.
OUR group had it right. The Bible (the King James Protestant Bible, mind you) was literally written by God. They believed Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John were Apostles who walked with Jesus and wrote everything down. The Bible was infallible, and questioning anything in it could send you to hell. There were millions of people who were following false doctrines and false prophets. One could not embrace the world (tv, radio, movies, plays, dancing, most modern fiction) during the week and pretend to be holy on Sunday. People who did this were going to get a shock when they were sent to hell.
The rest of the world was evil and sinful. Other churches had it wrong. Catholics were idol-worshipers. Other religions were created by the devil. The devil was winning. Only WE were pure and holy.
It was a very very very very very sick environment.
