Description of Protestantism

I came across this on a message board. While I’m happy to acknowledge the many areas where we agree with our separated brethren and hold much in common, this summary of Protestantism hits the nail on the head…

Protestantism: where everyone is a priest except priests, where everyone can bind and loose except bishops, where you can command angels but not ask their help, where you can talk to the devil but not to saints, where everyone gets a crown except the Virgin Mary, where everyone can interpret Scripture except the Church, where every church is a church except the Church…
– Theodosius Walker
