Luther and Calvin contradict each other on many things.
You have 2000 years of consistency verses 500 years of inconsistencies.

There is only one Holy Spirit and Truth!

"You have 2000 years of consistency..."

Consistency in what? Papal practices? Papal Bulls? The method of choosing "Popes"? The Catholic Church's toward the Jews? Non-Catholics?

There was no need for the so-called Counter-Reformation?

1 church still stands(The Catholic Church).The other is divided into 30,000 plus(protestant)

You know, we used to have a million plus denominations, having enjoyed a 25,000% growth rate earlier this year. I guess we must have healed a significant number of those "divisions" since last March, in order to bring the number back down!

Then again, I have to question the data behind this. Why? Because I've had Catholics tell me - with a straight face - that they include Baptists, Jehovah's Witnesses, Mormons, and even Rastafarians (!) in their list of Protestant denominations. What I've never seen, however, is an exhaustive list that shows the names of all of these (alleged) 30,000 denominations. I trust you have yours handy. Perhaps you could share it with us?

Pinging AlaninSA and FourtySeven, as I've used their posts from other threads in the above.

Does the Catholic Church still sell indulgences?

“You have 2000 years of consistency verses 500 years of inconsistencies.”

That’s 1600 years for the Roman Catholic Church.

“A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson
