    They're referring to confession, not the sacraments (not that I'd expect them to be clear or coherent) - source: I was raised in the evangelical church. It's not very openly discussed, but it's taught in private that Jews and Catholics go to hell. But basically we're supposed to be nice to them, especially the Jews because they're "God's chosen people". The idea is that criticizing Jews as a nation of people will call down God's wrath on you... Because God has a thing for people who he's apparently sending to hell...

    Also, the protestant Appostle's Creed states "we believe in the holy catholic church". Though they say it's a lower case "c" to signify the Greek term that means all Christian churches... Which includes the Roman Catholic Church, who are also going to hell. Protestantism is a hell of a drug.
