FYI some of those listed are in total communion (at least prior to 1958) while others are Catholic in name only.

Regarding the first you are like someone who accuses a family of being divided because some are girls, others boys, some have black hair, others red, some are tall, others short.

Catholic means universal and you here demonstrate why you are not one. Protestant in one sense means narrow-minded as relates my illustration and as relates to fear of supporting scripture with tradition.

Where’s your protestant list? Or do protestants only study “catholics”?

So that does not mean that they are all in agreement on every last point of doctrine, as Catholics demand non-Catholics to be in order to validate their religion?

Therefore, if doctrinal differences between denominations invalidate Protestantism, then doctrinal differences between Catholic *rites* (and not small ones at that) also
invalidate Catholicism.

And *rites* is just a renamed, repackaged, and relabeled form of denominations. Just like annulment is divorce repackaged and relabeled and sold as a different bill of goods.

The same can be asked of you:
