==Criticism==

EWTN is criticized by many for its portrayal of [[Protestants]], [[Atheists]], [[Homosexuals]], [[New Age]] groups, and others. EWTN programs for example will call Protestants heretics, and there are several EWTN programs directed at countering Protestant beliefs. Despite this, EWTN will call Protestants [[anti-Catholic]] if a Protestant group criticizes Catholicism. [[Genocides]] in [[Communist]] countries are attributed to [[Atheism]], but EWTN will call groups or individuals anti-Catholic if those groups point out Catholic inspired killing, such as the [[Inquisition]]. EWTN programs, including Benedict Groeschel's program on the [[10Ten Commandments]], have even made statement that Atheists do actually believe in God, and simply will not admit it to themselves. New Age groups are associated with [[Satanism]]. And [[Judaism]] is portrayed as an incomplete religion, such as on programs like the Journey Home where former Jews who have appeared on the show have said that Judaism is fulfilled in Catholicism. The network also broadcasts a show called Defending Life, in which [[pro-choice]] advocates are portrayed as murderers.
