What is a protestant in your opinion? It's certainly something very different in Europe than the abundance of protestant denominations in America. Some of them I wouldn't touch with a barge pole, and it's more than fair to compare them to the Taliban. In Europe protestants are mainstream in their vast majority, and in most cases more liberal than the Catholics as far as social issues are concerned. Can't say the same about America though.
And, personal caveat, that OP guy isn't real. At least not in the sense of what he pretends to be.
A protestant is simply a Christian who is not Catholic. Some of them here in the US are very liberal, others are uber conservative. It's pretty diverse.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
