Your oversimplification is precisely the kind of mentality that keeps our worldviews and imaginations hindered and juvenile. Be it of the past or otherwise.

There are 16 Centuries of Christian history to contend with before the Protestant Reformation even occurred! And Luther wanted to clean up the church, not divide and fragment it into oblivion.

You seem to think that Protestants are unaware of what happened prior to the Reformation, but the Reformation actually drew from the early church for its foundation. Furthermore, the Roman church has only existed in it’s current form since 1054, when it separated from its Greek origins.

oversimplification?
The pope brought a pagan IDOL into the Vatican.
He doesn’t believe in spreading the Word of God through missionary work.
these are not the fruits of a believing Christian.

Remove the log in your eye before removing the mote in mine.
