For protestants, the church is the Body of Christ, not one particular denomination. I trust our spirit-filled pastors to recognize whether or not we truly are filled with the Holy Spirit and it’s mostly because of the fruit we bear (or DON’T bear).

What makes your pastors better judges of people’s theological shape than the Catholic Church of Jesus Christ?

Catholics would say that same thing -- DO say the same thing. We may not mean exactly what Protestants mean by "denomination" but I could say that exact same words without fear of error.
