>>It would really raise the level of meaningful conversation if you would post threads by people who actually know what the heck ANY actual Protestant believes.<<

But then they wouldn't have anything to stand on. I have noticed that they seldom if ever post or use the official positions of any of the Protestant denominations but only use their misrepresentations or what they would like to portray Protestants to believe.

And yet we use and post from the CCC itself.

Ah, begging your pardon, but I think each of you may be a little off base. In truth, every Christian denomination or independent church is organized with a written statement of faith, chiefly because anyone that intends to get involved with them needs to have a precise statement of what they believe (including they themselves in passage of time). That is never hard to find out.

Here is a fairly typical one:

Doctrinal Statement of Victory Baptist Church, New Lenox, IL (click here)

(And, by the way, Baptists have been around way before the Roman Catholic denomination was contrived. The church at Jerusalem were all Baptists, practicing immersion of the confessed and repentant believer on the basis of remitted sins and a new birth in Christ, into membership. The doctrine of the Apostles was essentially what you see in the above Statement, save church polity.)
