“please show me the roman catholic churches that do not adhere to the vatican on matters of doctrine and faith, on a continual basis over the last 2000 years....”

Straw man... There are plenty of “Catholic” churches that have disagreed with Rome. Your response of course is that they then ceased to be Catholic. That may or may not be fair but you don’t seem to be willing to ascribe this to Orthodoxy.

Your suggestion that because there are disagreements over the agenda of a Church Synod that we have become Protestants is simply risible. There were disagreements over the agenda at Vatican II. Does that make you all Protestants? Your reference to doctrinal issues is also a straw man since there are no disagreements on matters of doctrine between the Orthodox churches. The Pan- Orthodox Synod is not expected to deal with any doctrinal matters.

since you sidestepped my original question, try this, show me roman catholic churches that declined vatican II attendance, or fought about what’s on the agenda....show me roman catholic churches who disregard the pope on matters of faith and doctrine.....

and i nvr said you were becoming protestant, i said the same thing that protestants did, i.e., leaving the original church, they began to fragment, and argue amongst themselves, and refuse to join together for matters of faith and doctrine, the same thing orthodox churches are doing as this article notes.
