He wasn’t really even that. He was an Anglo-Catholic architect who was brought up Episcopalian.

That's true as was mentioned in the Wiki blurb I posted. But, according to some, anyone who isn't a Roman Catholic is a Protestant. Trying to explain that we hold to the SAME faith as that of the Apostles and not the perverted versions which developed centuries later is dismissed out of hand. They cannot wrap their heads around THAT truth. I don't identify as a Protestant for just that very reason. I'm a Christian - of the ORIGINAL kind.

My paternal grandparents were Primitive Baptist, maternal were Moravian. I understand getting back to first principles. Neither regard themselves as Protestant. I was raised Lutheran, now non-denominational Christian. So long as they’re teaching the Gospel of salvation and aren’t going beyond what is written, I’m OK with it. I’m acquainted with many Catholics in real life as opposed to online who are deeply Christian, more to the charismatic end of that church. I do worry for them, what with all the extraneous trappings and spiritual distractions, but they’ve negotiated that maze somehow.
