I don’t know, but some people seem to have issues with bringing some abstract subject matter into discussions from time to time.

I would note the following ironies about how the Reformation has evolved.

1) Protestations of the power of the Catholic Church, yet you have government-run protestant churches nowadays (Denmark and Finland’s Lutheran Churches), and the case of the Episcopal Church.

2) Protestations about the Catholic Church falling away, yet numerous other Protestant groups have their giving up man-woman marriage to attract new followers.

3) People protest the Catholic Church’s opposite-gender marriage policy when they have the option of joining another church. Most of these people also have little to no interest in religion at all, anyways.

And some mainline Protestant churches seem to have given up their very belief in Jesus as Savior.

Crazy world nowadays.:-)
