Protestantism is simply a man made religion (created by Luther, Calvin, etc.) incorporating only a few truths from scripture to delude the gullible. They then included unbiblical practices and beliefs (e.g. sola Scriptura) and anti-Biblical beliefs (e.g. sola fide) to draw in the easily duped and biblically illiterate.

See? We can play this game, too! :)

Problem with your little deal is that true believers whether Protestant or not rely on what the Holy Spirit revealed in scripture alone. It is therefore an attempt to stay with the original intent and teaching.

Catholicism on the other hand makes no attempt to stay with what Jesus and the apostles taught.

Neither Luther nor Calvin "created" "protestantism"

By definition, protestantism is the state of being in protest (in this case, religious) ... a state which most all people are guilty

If you actively work against obama ... you are a protestant

Perhaps you should stop using a mis-used word and start using "non-Catholic"

It is one who is not a Catrholic that will state things the Catholic interprets as hostile .. thus "protestant"
