Of course you are Protestant. You hold all the tenets of Protestantism. It doesn't matter a bit that the "church" you go to happens to be "nondenominational."
How Do We Decide Which Doctrines Are Truly Fundamental?

what are all the tenets of Protestantism?

No one has said that? Why do you people always inject things into the conversation no one has said?
Nothing is inspired but the written word of God. Everything else is subject to the authority of His word. Period.

I think i know what i am better than you do. We were called Christians in the first century, we are called Christians now. Protestant is a label the rcc put on Lutherans. And that had nothing to do with objecting to rc doctrine btw. Pick up a book!
Come on, you know them. Let's start with Sola Scriptura, and then we can move on to austere churches.

So 'all' the tenets of Protestantism is ss? She asked for all, not one that you just disagree with.
why would i know them? i'm not protestant.
when I was what you might call 'protestant' - for 5 yrs, no one said anything about tenets we needed to believe. they didn't teach SS or SF. so those are out.
Which RCs have no idea about at all. I would rather be in a church that reads God's word and does as He wants than in the bad tree that goes against His word. The RCC adds to His word which is against His word for a start. This thread is about the RCC and its false doctrines, not over there. If you wish to discuss SS go to the appropriate board. I am sure you could find a denomination to discuss it.

You have no connection to the early Christians since you are not in their Church and have no history to trace back to that time.
Your institution has no connection to the early Christians at all. I mean they exposed sin for a start. They listen and followed the teachings of the apostles, your institution doesn't. They were good examples, your leaders aren't. Yet it does not matter what they RCC writes about its history, the evidence of its actions proves it is all lies.
yes, as believers in Christ (Christians) we are connected to those of the NT - we are part of that same church - His church. we have the same Leader - Christ. catholics have a man leader - your pope.
of course we do! we're the ones who actually believe in and follow what was taught then, catholics don't. they have an all new man-made religion to follow - one not taught in the NT.

Of course i do. We are believers in Jesus. We believe the same gospel and have the same bible (not including your 7 apocryphal books). And yes, we do have a history which i have detailed a number of times.
Catholics? Nope. You have a false gospel which includes works. You have false teachings found nowhere in the bible. You have a false Jesus in your eucharist. Your church is the outsider, not mine.
I doubt it. Doctrines aren't fundamental. Doctrines are a body of beliefs which are taught. This is what someone would profess. Unlike a profession of faith, one must confess Christ to be saved. Those who profess Christ cannot be saved without first confessing Christ. Those who confess Christ are witnesses to the risen Christ.
Those who cannot see the risen Christ can only profess him and their professed beliefs which are learned through inculcation. Inculcated professions of faith are never fundamental.

You have no history except Catholic church history, a bible missing 7 books and no God given authority to follow. Your protestant doctrines are flawed.

Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.
Your history is revisionist history, it whitewashes the evil fruit of your institution throughout the centuries. You other gospel is wrong and goes against scripture, your add ons are false as well.

And the Roman Catholic Religious system is a PRIME EXAMPLE of exactly that!!!! The BEST JOKE satan has is "Purgatorial Sanctification" imagine the reaction of poor Catholics who find themselves in "Purgatory" and THEN find out it's actually HELL for eternity!!!

are you willing to bet your salvation on this statement
Really;
are you willing to bet your salvation on this statement
a Church here on earth
are you really that blindHebrews 1:7
And of the angels he saith,
Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
.
14 Are they (his angels, and his ministers) not all ministering spirits,
sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?
are these (sent forth from a Church here on earth
or from the church hebrews tells us of ???
is the Pope and Bishops of the RCC (his angels, and his ministers )
or any of the Protestant churchs as well
How many of you think your teachers are angels, sent from heaven ??????
"sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?"
Misfit;
if not; then who sent them and from what church

There will be some sort of cleansing fire after death. Do we agree on that point?
1 Cor 3 11-15 For no other foundation can any one lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if any one builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble—each man’s work will become manifest; for the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test what sort of work each one has done. If the work which any man has built on the foundation survives, he will receive a reward. If any man’s work is burned up, he will suffer loss, though he himself will be saved, but only as through fire.

ABSOLUTELY NOT in the idiotic "Purgatorial Sanctifiction" fantasy. Your own cite makes that clear - it's the "Works" that get tested - NOT the person.
