He's a protestant extremist, I would think he considers Catholics to be satanic...

As he should. You get to heaven by accepting Jesus as your saviour, not by good deeds. Your sins are forgiven by Jesus, not by praying a certain number of prayers. Everybody who says otherwise is a false prophet trying to lure you into the arms of satan.

I think it's futile arguing with this guy. He either responds with a massive wall of text, "read the OP" or "wait for the future thread".

Can't we all just cast aside our differences and pursue our own goals without impeding on anyone else's? Or is that too much to ask?

Too much to ask from someone who thinks you are a sinner and go to hell. And who additionally thinks his lord and saviour wants him to love you and to do his best to make you see the light so you can go to heaven, too. After all the only reason you try to resist is because the devil is trying his best to prevent you from seeing the truth.

On the other side of the argument you have the people who think that this behaviour is the root of all evil on this planet and if only they can convinve religious people with rational, scientific argumentation, they can purge the world of this problem and make it better, more rational place.

Unfortunately rational, scientific thought is a way of thinking invented by the devil so people cannot see the truth from/of god. No, I didn't make that up, I heard a whole sermon about it once.
