If the Catholic Church could just erase the last 1500 years of goofiness then they probably could set their house in order.

This is the hubris of the Reformation...all of Christendom was wrong for 1500 years, but Luther and Calvin suddenly got it right.

lol. The voice of reform was heard for centuries before Calvin and Luther, but Rome could not comprehend it. It's heart had waxed gross, and its ears were dull of hearing, and its eyes remained closed to the truth found in God's word.

Jan Hus and John Wycliffe predated the Reformation by two centuries. For his righteous efforts, Hus was burned at the stake.

YES, and good thing, too, or we’d all be in error with you.
