I don’t know if it’s across the board, but the vocal Catholic proselytizers on FR all seem to believe that everything “Protestant” originated with Martin Luther. It didn’t. Despite their evident trauma, he wasn’t even the first. Luther was inspired by Hus. Hus was inspired by Wycliffe. If there’s any association at all between the KJV and Martin Luther, it goes back to Wycliffe, two centuries before. Luther and Lutherans were shall we say frowned upon by the Church of England, which did not deem itself “Protestant.”
