Right, because it’s not as if the early Protestants were actually Catholics, including Catholic priests and theologians, or anything like that. /sarc

Which early Protestants do you assert were bona fide Catholic Theologians ?

[Boogieman]

Let’s see, Jan Hus, John Knox, and Menno Simons were all Catholic priests. Luther was a priest and theology professor, Thomas Cranmer was a Catholic archbishop and had degrees in theology and a doctorate of divinity. Martin Bucer was a Catholic priest, and a Dominican friar, having studied theology under the Dominicans.
