Yes you are. That denomination did not come from the Portestant response to RCC theology.
I am not a protestant, in any event. One of our daughters is RCC and full of faith. My degree came from a Catholic University and I have a deeply felt consideation for the Catholic historian. You should check out some of their websites. Just punch in "Church fathers" and you will find yourself in the midst of a number of Catholic sites dealing with the subject.
I see "protestant" as clubhouse name for those who are apostate. That is how I believe the term is used. I have seen posts from Mormon to Mormon that gives me this opinion.

It is the perfect ad hom ................. defensible and accusatory at the same time.
DAVEH: LOL......You guys slay me. If I had used the term, Liberal Protestants, you might have a reasonable chance of having a valid argument. But to hear you guys recoil from being thought of as a Protestant is almost as silly as Democrats cringing at being labeled Liberal. :-)
Just what is it that you think I'm accusing Protestants as being that you don't like, Bishop? I assume you are a Protestant, aren't you, John? If I remember correctly, you are a 4Sq adherent, which as I understand it is a branch of Protestantism. Am I wrong in assuming such?
