Without those men, you wouldn’t be posting this message now, on an open forum, in English. You would still be buying indulgences and suffering the ravages of feudalism. God is not the order of tyranny. He is the Author of Liberty. Stop defending the slow-witted saints, and embrace the light. It is precisely because God is not the author of confusion, that he protected He church against Roman domination.

Did He also protect it from Roman domination from A.D. 300 to 1500?

...ah, how happy I am that I and my fellow Catholics have been saved by the Reformation, which I’m completely certain came about strictly for that purpose, so that we stupid and obtuse serfs could learn how to speak our minds, simplistic as they may be...how blessed are we that fora such as these exist, where our misbegotten views can be corrected entirely by no more that snide, throwaway lines from such learned individuals as yourself...how we existed for 2000 years without your slurs to guide us to the ‘light’...one of the great mysteries of all time...

Fascinating discourse.

Would you be a follower of those men who popped out of the aether in the 1500s at the behest of the Holy Spirit because the Catholic Church turned into a Satanic institution; or those men who popped out of the aether in 1800s at the behest of the Holy Spirit because the Reformationist dudes turned into either tapioca or a copy of the Catholic Church; or those men who popped out of the aether in the 1900s because the Restorationist dudes turned into either tapioca or a copy of the Reformationist churches or were put into jail for fraud; or those con artist dudes who popped out of the aether in the last few years because the con artist dudes of the 1900s turned into either tapioca or a copy of the Restorationist churches or were put into jail for fraud?

Or do you sit at home or in the local beer joint and make it all up as you go along? Inquiring minds would like to know, in order to formulate a meaningful response.
