As were all "Protestants" before the Reformation. At the founding of Protestantism, all of the Marian devotion that this thread rejects, were fully embraced by your Founders.
I guess you skipped over the fact that those opinions didn’t pass scriptural muster and were not included in Lutheran Confessional documents, or what Luther thought personally isn’t relevant to Lutherans when it is in conflict with the Word of God. We don’t worship or pray to other people.
If so, you'd think they would read it once in awhile, would sure clear up the baloney doctrines of the OTC.
“At the founding of Protestantism, all of the Marian devotion that this thread rejects, were fully embraced by your Founders.”
That the Reformers recovered the Gospel of Grace is more than one could hope for. To think they would set straight more than a thousand years of error in a brief lifetime is unrealistic.
They did work to make Scripture open and available to the common man and set off a reexamination to see what God revealed. In this sense, God used them to correct and recover.
No one claims they were perfect. No human is. For His own reasons, God uses flaw-ridden humans and an occasional donkey or fish.
