Missed the point didn’t you. Protestants are radical Augustinians, and they depend heavily on HIS teachings on Original Sin. HIS version of what Paul said. But many Catholics also tend to follow the Jansenist doctrine which are not far removed from Calvinism.
No I sure didn’t “miss the point”.
I’M a “protestant” and I am not any MAN’S creature.
You RC’s have a real thing for labels.
The fact is that I as an individual SINNER need no mere man between me and OUR Lord.
If YOU do, more power to you.
Christianity is NOT a “religion” it is a personal relationship with the Lord.
Do as YOU will of course.
