My friend thinks that Protestantism is just Catholicism; Hedonist edition
Is he right?

Catholicism and Lutheranism is hedonism, good art, good food, enjoying life. Calvinism meanwhile is concentrated autism worshipping complete austerity and workoholic mentality with no fun allowed.

Which is why so many of them are mindless capitalists and also why so many Protestant countries have the most irreligious populations in the world right? Oh wait...

Those Koreans are confused, as the image of Jesus with rays coming out of his heart is Roman Catholic.

Baptismal regeneration and real presence are unbiblical

But isn't modern Lutheranism quite different from the ideals of Luther himself?
As far as I know, Luther was quite orthodox and even narrow-minded, suggesting irrational things like a literal interpretation of Genesis.
What happened to the Lutheran church from being hardcore bible-thumpers to the church of gay-marriages and female pastors?

No.
Protestantism is a reaction to corrupt Roman Catholic practices.
After seeing the violent reaction of the Papacy, the Reformers realized they were dealing with the Antichrist spoken of in Revelation.

Daily reminded that Calvinism is the only logically consistent theology

All Christianity is Hedonism. That's why I converted to Islam. Being a Christian is going to land you in jail sooner or later, you need to detox.

Protestantism is basically Christianity: Post-modernist edition. Death of the author. Priesthood of all believers.
Catholicism is literally patrician since the Pope inherited the office of Pontifex Maximus from Roma Eterna.
Eastern Orthodox is basically Christianity: Putin is my Pope edition.
Oriental Orthodox is basically heresy. Not Christianity since 325 AD.
Stop using semi-colons incorrectly.
