Foreword to those who, for the sake of their modern version of "love, peace, and unity" - a type of "saccharin sentimentalism" found no where in Scripture - would denounce the content of this OP as unnecessarily provocative, or even an instigation of violence - please read the following statements.

The Protestant Reformers were well acquainted with the murderous, horrific Dark Ages regime of the Roman Catholic Papacy - "Papacy" referring to the union of the Catholic church and the equally corrupt State - where millions of "heretics" for over a thousand years were tried, convicted, sentenced to torture or death, and handed over to State authorities for punishment for the "crime" of choosing to worship God according to the dictates of their own conscious, rather than accepting the Satanic doctrines and dogmas of the RCC, the most intolerant religious organization to ever grace the topside of the Earth:
"That the Church of Rome has shed more innocent blood than ANY OTHER INSTITUTION that has ever existed among mankind will be questioned by no Protestant who has a competent knowledge of history." - William E. H. Lecky, History of the Rise and Influence of the Spirit of Rationalism in Europe, Vol. II, pp. 35
This timeline, which begins well into the reign of terror of the Papacy and is a partial listing of what is estimated by church historians to be between 50 - 150 Million victims which only time and eternity will reveal, is both a demonstration of the horrific extremes to which the RCC did go in the past in order to advance the self-described "supremacy" of the RCC...and a warning to my fellow "heretics" of today that these same extremes are not only yet still considered by the RCC as acceptable recourse in dealing with we who reject the Satanic doctrines of the RCC, but that the centuries-long dominant Protestant eschatological interpretation of Historicism shows that such extremes will be once again brought to bear upon those who refuse to acknowledge anything but the Word of God as their only guide in religious matters just before the return of our True Shepherd, Pontiff, Potentate, Vicar of God, and Lord God of Heaven, Earth (and Purgatory, if it it actually existed anywhere outside the realm of Papal fantasy) - the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
