If that gets you annoyed and inflamed then you need to ask yourself why.

That was not what I said. I find it interesting that someone with an RCC background will go from hammering RCC perfectionism (the above) to anti-RCC perfectionism (Protestants need to get further away from the RCC and become Calvinists) and back and forth all day long. The beliefs of most people here do not revolve around how close or far they are from the RCC. Personally I feel almost no gravity towards the RCC whether you are going to pick the one or the other century as a reference frame. You are welcome to try to create gravity where there is none but the result is inevitable; annoyed posters and readers. If you want to be the Pope of all that then go ahead.

Yeah, some site that refers to themselves as "Pirate Christians", what a joke ! They link to a Lutheran creed, probably anti-Charismatics all the way.

Sorry how is mentioning the Doctrine of Original sin that I believe comes from over 1600 years ago, a doctrine that is accepted by traditional protestant churches, hammering RCC perfectionism?

One of the reasons these traditional churches are anti-Charsimatic is because of the enphasis on "you" and so little about the Character of God. Consider the "Confess what you want and you get it" message or the "Prosperity Gospel", all are lapped up by people, not looking for God, but what they can get for themselves.

I find it interesting that someone with an RCC background...

Now we know what's wrong with that boy

It's all making sense now...

not looking for God, but what they can get for themselves

Some actually read their Bible and understand that Duet 8:18 provides us with the purpose of material prosperity... so God can use it to establish His Covenant on this earth which of course is to minister to mankind to make sure people know they can turn to Jesus and not go to hell which is what all people deserve.

Obviously the devil deceives many into using material prosperity to serve the flesh... but that's not just the prosperity gospel people doing that. No, the catholics do it, as well as all other false religions and people that have no religious affiliation at all.

Ultimately, material prosperity was God's idea in the first place... and satan seeks to use that to turn people away from God unto serving the flesh
