The Protestant Reformation really did involve a very few “denominations.” Those were the reformed and the lutheran and the presbyterians.

The Anglicans sort of got involved, but not for reformationist reasons. They broke away because of kings and personal politics driving kings.

Non-protestant groups today would definitely include: all charismatic and pentecostal groups, Mormons, many baptistic groups, the orthodox of all stripes, all restorationist groups, and the “lets-hang-out-a-shingle” groups with weird names.

I’m not trying to be argumentative. It’s just that the protestant reformation actually meant something about its relationship to breaking away from the Catholic Church.

Neither did I take it as argumentative.

That's pretty much my understanding, always provided that the C of E really did go through a strongly Calvinist phase during Edward VI's reign/regency, and has had a strongly Calvinist wing ever since.

But with respect to a Caucus, "Non-Protestant" would be a remarkably diverse group, with Catholic and all charismatic and pentecostal groups, Mormons, many baptistic groups, the orthodox of all stripes, all restorationist groups, and the “lets-hang-out-a-shingle” groups with weird names. !!!

That would be SOME party!

Not really. You mean the Lutherans, the Calvinists and those following Zwingli, but there were also others, the Unitarians and others just popped up like Anabaptists, etc. Even the Marburg Colloquy (1529) didn't resolve any of these differences.

You're

And you are right about the pent-e-costals, Mormons, BAptists, etc. but I would argue that they are second or third generation PRotestants in that they did not originally break from the Catholic Church but broke from those that broke from the CAtholic Church, hence they fall under the umbrella of child or grand-child divisions of the Protestant groups
