t most main line Protestant churches are somewhat less radical then Radical Protestant churches. Main line Protestants hold many of the customs and teachings of the church. But the fact still remains that all the Protestant "lock, stock, and barrel" comes from the Catholic Church in our Nicene, Apostles, and Athanasian creeds.
