Not really. Protestants just don't understand their history and catechisms but it's all based on scripture. So it's an educational process to understand the scriptures. That is why there are a wide variety of Bible studies.
Catholics have little to base their belief on except what church elders have decided to tell people what they should believe. The ironic part is that Catholic who understand they are to take their beliefs from what the Church tells them are the ones who attend.
I never thought about it in this context, but in a way their robots, robbed of their wills. I'll have to use that in my next predestination argument. ;O)
Yes really. There's a whole lot of difference in what different folks get from the same scripture. Sola scriptura depends on whose interpretation.
That, I should add, seems to be the real purpose of catechisms and confessions: this is *our* interpretation (or Luthers or Zwingli’s or Calvin’s or..).
