Hey everyone welcome to the Council of Trent podcast. Today the other Paul is joining me. He is a Protestant

Youtuber though I don't even know if that label he would accede to that he's going to talk to us about how non-Catholic

and non-Or Orthodox Christians identify themselves.

And today we're going to talk about doctrinal unity,

something that Christians strive for

and the different methods that people use,

and which methods are more successful in that because that comes up a lot and issues related to Sola Scriptura.

Paul has done debates on this issue. He had a great discussion with Jimmy Aiken on scripture, tradition, and authority not too long ago.

And he hails right now from Sydney, Australia where I guess you probably just had Brecky over there, right?

It's what, 8 a.m.

Yeah, it's around 8 a.m. but I guess this is actually my breakfast

breakfast right now and since obviously time zones work by means of temporal

displacement I have to warn you about a great disaster in the United States

that's about to happen. Right because it is 5 o'clock on a Tuesday where I am and it is 8 o'clock

and a Wednesday where you are. That always made it really interesting when I would I would love to go back to

Australia and do some talks. I've been I went there a few years ago and it was always strange. It took me two

days to get there and then it felt like time you leave

at 6 a.m. from Sydney on a Tuesday and you get back at Los Angeles at like 8 a.m. on a Tuesday so

always always weird things so yeah let's talk a little bit about this because you've brought this up and I think you've mentioned before another other podcasts and shows that sometimes the comparisons between Catholics and Protestants may not always be fair.

Even the term Protestant might be problematic. I thought I've heard that you don't even consider that term as helpful for one for yourself.

So how do you cash all that out and be helpful for our listeners to know more about your self-identity

as a Christian?
