The lack of direction in Protestantism is not self-evident?

Not at all. How do you assume it to be so?

The only unifying element of Protestantism is that they do not want to be Catholic. We have Protestants who want to play a sacramental church, like Lutherans and Anglicans; we have those who don’t, like the Evangelicals. But all claim that the Holy Spirit led them where they are. We have Protestants who believe in the Trinity and those who read the same scripture and do not see it there. But all claim that the Holy Spirit led them where they are. We have those who baptize infants and those who don’t; who marry homosexuals and those who don’t; and all claim that the Holy Spirit led them where they are. Al Kresta, a former evangelical preacher and now a Catholic radio host once said that he can make a distinct Protestant denomination out of any randomly chosen five verses of the Bible. This is a sorry state of affairs for Luther and Calvin to have lead you in, — are you sure the Holy Spirit did this to you?
