Baptist-types are not Protestants. Plymouth-type brethren are not Protestants. But they have been around in one horribly persecuted form or another since the Pentecost that the Holy Ghost descended upon and in the first Christian assembly.

The poster is referring to the unhistorical “trail of blood” fallacy, which argues that Baptists are really just Gnostics who were persecuted by the evil Church Fathers.

If they want to cling to that myth, then they might as well admit they are not Christians.
