In a way of looking at it, many Protestant churches take a piece of Catholicism and expand it into a whole.

You should look at all the Councils, not just one.

I have looked at a lot of the Councils (not all). The older they are, the better they are.

That is a given D-fender. Besides, the Council of Orange was a local council and not binding on the whole Church. Using it as if it were an Ecumenical Council is deceiving, especially when some of the Protestants have been specifically told that such local councils are not universally binding.
