Apparently you are using this parable in the sense that it should encourage us to "forgive" the Roman Catholics for their sins.Are the Roman Catholics going to repent of their idolatry and other heresies any time soon? Somehow I doubt that.
When a Roman Catholic leaves the darkness of the papal antichrists shackles and becomes a real Christian then the Lord forgives him and so shall we and rejoice.
What we are showing the Roman Catholics at present is that their religion is unbiblical, idolatrous, blasphemous and heretical. Therefore as the Lord ordained the Reformation in the 16th century that HIS disciples should escape from the clutches of the papal antichrist; - Thus should we reveal the error of their ways and invite them to join the real Church and Biblical religion.
Forgiveness comes after repentance - Not during the continuity of sin.
What 'YOU' must do is teach the fallacy and heresy of Roman Catholic religion and invite them to change to Biblical doctrine.
