Sure they are. That’s why they’re called “protestants”.

not all protestants are heretics but the catholic church with its idol worshipping gay union supporting leadership is certainly apostate. And the Jesuit’s are catholic recognized as so by the catholic church. They are all yours ebb

Sure they are. That’s why they’re called “protestants”.

Potestants" - a term so broad it is inaccurate as a description as often used by Catholics - originally denoted a class of Christians who did not do as you are supposed to do, to allow themselves to be led, and like a docile flock to follow the Pastors," (VEHEMENTER NOS, an Encyclical of Pope Pius X promulgated on February 11, 1906) and instead determined which Catholic church teaching were valid based upon their understanding of what the most ancient (Scripture) church teaching said. However, since you and you comrades with their various sects also do the same in rejecting the current living pope Francis and certain modern teachings, and hold to another pope (in your case an unnamed one) as being the valid pope, then you also are a type of divisive Protestant. True faithful Catholics obey the commands and exhortations such as stated by many popes. such as,

'the one duty of the multitude is to allow themselves to be led, and, like a docile flock, to follow the Pastors," "to suffer themselves to be guided and led in all things that touch upon faith or morals by the Holy Church of God through its Supreme Pastor the Roman Pontiff," "of submitting with docility to their judgment," with "no discussions regarding what he orders or demands, or up to what point obedience must go, and in what things he is to be obeyed... not only in person, but with letters and other public documents ;" and 'not limit the field in which he might and must exercise his authority, " for "obedience must not limit itself to matters which touch the faith: its sphere is much more vast: it extends to all matters which the episcopal power embraces," and not set up "some kind of opposition between one Pontiff and another. Those who, faced with two differing directives, reject the present one to hold to the past, are not giving proof of obedience to the authority which has the right and duty to guide them," "Nor must it be thought that what is expounded in Encyclical Letters does not of itself demand consent."
