So posting a huge list of Protestant denominations is proof that protestants are wrong, but posting a huge list of Catholic denominations is an "error," because having different rites and other religions using "Catholic" in the name somehow isn't the same as the Protestants having different rites and using "Baptist" or "Lutheran" in the name?

Right, right, I know, I know, it's error because the difference is that a Pope nobody but you recognizes didn't bless any of those things, except for the Orthodox and Anglicans, who teach different things and worship in different ways.

Did it ever occur to any of you that perhaps those various Protestant denominations were constructed without the blessings of their particular synods? That they are simply using "Baptist" or "Lutheran" in their names without blessing? You know, the same excuse you use to deny all these Catholic denominations that exist? Of course it didn't. Should I even bother trying to reason with people who obviously gave up logic and embraced the censer fumes decades ago? Obviously not.

The lead in paragraph states:

**The following American Christian branches to European founded churches take their beginning from the history chart of the preceding page. The date before each denomination indicates the beginning of that American branch church fellowship. **

There is absolutely nothing that says anything is right or wrong.

It is merely a list of factual names and dates.
