That is hardy a fair assessment

It is very fair, and true. Look at all the conflicting doctrine regarding salvation among the various Protestant denominations. The Holy Spirit isn't in conflict with the truth.

that end is the result of RCC manipulations which were the cause for reform in the first place.

Reform, yes. But the Reformation wasn't about reform, it was about starting separate churches, with each adherring to its own traditions of man, based on their individual interpretations (and sometimes manipulations) of Scripture.

I do not see conflict wrt salvation within the Protestant denominations. Perhaps you could be more specific.

I don't deny that result, but that was not the intent. the protest was for just cause.

If you admit to a need for reform, what steps have the RCC taken to address the cause of the rebellion, and the ongoing disparity?
