[Dr. Eckleburg]

So far, NO protestant here has defined his/her denomination, so we can all examine their beliefs in the light of our own.

Respectfully, Judy, you may have not been paying attention when Gamecock and Irish Tenor and ears-to-hear and Alex Murphy and Par35 and I said we were Presbyterian.

And when ForestKeeper and Wmfights and Harleyd D and Blue-Duncan and 1000silverlings and forthedeclaration and Uncle Chip and Manfredthewonderdawg said they were Baptists. And when Old Reggie said he was Unitarian. And when xzins said he was Methodist.

I guess you missed all those posts.

Why anyone would respond to a questionnaire, especially when the protestant cohort is also summoned to the questionnaire, is beyond me.

I'm not sure I understand that remark, but since in the first few sentences of this thread Ultra Sonic 007 made a distinction between his move away from some sort of evangelical roots, it would be pertinent to know what he's actually talking about.

After all, he brought it up.

[Judith Anne]

Thanks. I missed those threads.

And when ForestKeeper and Wmfights and Harleyd D and Blue-Duncan and 1000silverlings and forthedeclaration and Uncle Chip and Manfredthewonderdawg said they were Baptists.

And proud of it! Our wives, moms and grandmas can out cook anybody's pot luck. Of course thats after we run around with rattlesnakes and do all our secret cult activities like praying and worshiping God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

I know we are not so sophisticated that we bow down to statues, people, wine and wafers but we manage.

I knew much of that, but certainly not from any of the posts I’ve read in a long, long time.

[1000 silverlings]

Yes, and I’m Regular Baptist out of SW Virginia linked to Sepphardic Portuguese Jews fleeing the Inquisition, and being Finns we are either of the tribe of Napthali or Dan.

FWIW, Alex is posting a chapter from the Westminster Confession Of Faith, as an “Open” thread daily. According to the rules you can follow along and comment as you see fit.

That is because on the issues of justification by faith alone, sola scriptura, rejection of idols, Mary worship, purgatory etc we all agree.
