Further, the difference between RC apologists and Protestants on these threads is that RCs make up loony stuff and tag Protestants with believing it, while Protestants point to actual practices and rites and beliefs Roman Catholics hold and then demolish those errors by the truth of Scripture.
We don't have to make anything up. Calvin wrote things that would have made Dr. Timothy Leary at the height of his LSD experimentations proud, and the 8 or 9 generations of Protestants that have come about after him have only improved on that original craziness.

Just as Calvin got his salvational teachings backwards, so do the anti Catholics get their points backwards. How can somebody claim to have the truth of Scripture when most of Scripture is either ignored or reduced to out of context snippets? The WCF is a perfect case in point. Meaningless gibberish generated from the mind of a madman, utilizing snippets of the OT and out of context snippets of Paul, and calling it based on the Gospels, which are either wholly ignored or reduced to tertiary commentary, not primary proofs.
