the 'protestants' were catholics dumb butt. wycliffe, savonarola, hus, luther; they all wanted to reform the catholic church were error had been added in. the catholic response was to desecrate corpses, deceive with assurances of safety and then murder, to send crusade after crusade to try to wipe out the followers who were mad about their leader being murdered, and brutal torture and execution. this after exterminating the waldensians to the last, and after two and then three men with hats all claimed to be pope and hired mercenary armies to kill each other and other christians. armies that were paid for with un-biblical indulgences. the rcs only have themselves to blame. and since then, they have just doubled down. imagine casting anathemas on people who do not believe mary was assumed into heaven?! eos are no better with their idolatry. and before you bring up the protestant canon; be aware that st cyril of jerusalem and st jerome both recommended it and opposed the apocrypha (cyril very strongly), with both saying that canon was what the old bishops and the apostles read. they also read baruch and the letter of jeremiah, which is not included in typical protestant canons, as protestants took the canon from the jews; however, baruch is just about how the jews in exile in babylon can only blame themselves and must repent and turn to god; and jeremiah is just calling the babylonian idols as dead wood and metal. neither change protestant perspectives, neither legitimise any un-biblical rc heresy.
