Well, then, I suppose their detesting Martin Luther was rather inexplicable, then.
You don't define your own beliefs very well. Work on that before you start shufflling history around to suit your partisan wants.
Speaking of defining, the State Church of so many colonies redefining itself after a genuinely Protestant revolution that resulted in the disestablishment of same is unsurprising.
Ask a member of the Church of England, in England, if they're Protestant. Have you ever met one? I don't think you have.

Nope. Protestants hated each other and often still do. Look at how Calvin and Luther bitterly hated one another and their doctrines. Those who indulge in heresy and schism often hate other heretics and schismatics intensely.
“You don’t define your own beliefs very well. Work on that before you start shufflling history around to suit your partisan wants.”
Actually what I say is usually plain as day. The problem apparently lies with you, not me.
“Speaking of defining, the State Church of so many colonies redefining itself after a genuinely Protestant revolution that resulted in the disestablishment of same is unsurprising.”
Whether you consider it unsurprising or not is irrelevant. All that was relevant was that you made a false claim that the Anglican Church was not Protestant and didn’t consider itself such. I showed that you were wrong on both counts and that American Anglicans knew this as well and put it in their very name. You denied reality. I refuse to do so.
“Ask a member of the Church of England, in England, if they’re Protestant. Have you ever met one? I don’t think you have.”
Oh, I have. Recently I talked to a former Anglican who is now a Catholic priest. The only Anglicans I have met who have a problem admitting their Protestant roots are the same ones who believe in the 19th century “branch” theory. They are in the distinct minority. It also doesn’t matter what their views are. There is reality. And then there is what Protestants invent.
