Depends on which Protestant -- many Anglicans (non-ECUSA types), Lutherans, Baptists, Methodists, Evangelical Churchs are Christian, but many others like those that believe in the second coming of Machen and Theonomy leading to the belief that those who don't follow Machen ought to be punished.

Then you have other Evangelicals who consider Baptists to be wrong due to John 10:28, and also condemn Baptist beliefs that but we could lose some "rewards" if we engage in extreme sinful behavior". Then you have those who believe in Harry Walther, then those who believe that a UFO will come and take them away during rapture

then you have the various groups even here on FR who look at 2012 as the judgement year (Millerites reborn?)

Sounds like SOME people are getting cranky and should go to bed.

You're ignoring the question. Why is that?

Apparently Roman Catholics are permitted to rely on their conscience but Protestants aren't.

And stranger still is that when Protestants say they do rely on their consciences, Roman Catholics ridicule them for doing so.

Peculiar.
