@BowsacNoodle @latein @judgedread @reloadedAK @thefinn It's absolutely fair to look at Protestant degeneration over 500 years into somewhere around 5k-10k sects of what may as well at this point be rabbinic opinion, including troon Prots and faggot Prots, divorce Prots and abortion Prots, and call it pilpul.

It's literally the same thing. You could probably compile Prot theology overall into a completely self-referencing refutation of everything Christ taught, between all the disagreements and do as thou wilt's.

Just because some Prots converted to Catholicism doesn't mean the Protestant "churches" were responsible. I've met multiple priests who are former Atheists. All Creation serves God, willingly or not. Attributing the result of God's Grace to a heretical institution is irrational.
