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.

> in areas where the Scofield bible wasn't even utilized

My understanding is that is was a teaching bible, used to mold the minds of young new pastors. It had effects far beyond where is was 'used'.
