You will have to define the term ,"protestant,"? The Church in England is no more than a Communion of Catholic believers within the Body of Christ!
Classicly Protestant refers to Lutherans in the Continental Reformation.
Rome claimed to be protestant to the House Lords in 1791.
While Anglicans refused to use the term in a theological context, using it only to protest against papal interference in domestic English Politics in the 16& 17th Cent.
