In my limited understanding, the only thing the protestants really took issue with was the 'bible adjacent' ritual that wasn't actually biblical, and the 'we feed you scripture and you talk to god through us' brokerage.

The Scofield bible is the origin and root of the modern view of dispensationalism, in that 'jews are still gods chosen people', rather than being rejected by him for rejecting Jesus, and is the root of what they now call 'judeochristianity', which is essentially reversing the earlier belief that jews are enemies of Christians for having killed Christ, the messiah of the Christians (not the jews).

Again, this is my understanding. I love reading the debate threads here but I am still learning.

Easy enough

>Some Catholic priests in the US probably at some point started reading the Schofield Bible because of how enormous it was in america in general, but didn't use it during mass because it's not used by the church. This probably wasn't a huge deal though

>many people have converted catholicism from protestantism and vice versa. Especially in america. Pretty much any American catholic priest with an anglo saxon last name is probably a convert or from a family that converted because of the fact that the vast majority of english and scottish old stock Americans were protestant. It would be easy to posit dispensationalism into the church because of this, even if not purposefully, due to it being your background.

>even if explicit dispensationalism is rejected, general philosemitism enters Europe through America's absolute domination of culture after ww2.

>ergo, jew loving catholics. An American export. You're welcome.

Catholicism is a hollow, impotent shell of a religion. People view church as something for women and children and when the appeal of being a Catholic is the "beauty of the ritual" or "tradition" at the expense of the message then the church is going to have people who are there for aesthetics rather than [to know God](https://biblehub.com/john/17-3.htm).

Dispensationalism as propagated by the SRB had a massive influence in America but in mainland Europe the so-called "higher criticism" decimated the church.
