We are considered Protestants because we do not believe in the Catholic system. In other words, we do not believe that the Pope is God on earth (or whatever they call him).Follow-up question:Not every Christian who is NOT Catholic is automatically a Protestant. Protestants can trace their their origins to the Protestant Reformation. How are the Seventh-day Adventists related to the Protestant Reformation?Any Christian faith that is NOT Catholic is derived FROM the PROTESTS against the Catholic Church. We do NOT believe the Pope is God on earth, and never have. Any Christian church that believes Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior, ARE Protestants, as the followers of Jesus, founded our Church. These protests began when Martin Luther placed the 99 Theses upon the door of a Catholic Church, beginning the Protestant reformation. The Seventh-Day Adventists broke off from one of the beginning religions such as the Lutheran faith (though I am not sure which one it broke off from) causing them to be classified as Protestants.We should probably take this to the discussion page, but there ARE Christian churches that are NOT Catholic and NOT Protestant. The Eastern Orthodox Church is the oldest example. They broke from the Catholic Church BEFORE the Reformation in the Great Schism. The Jehovah's Witnesses and the Mormons are two Christian churches which trace their origins to the American Restoration Movement of the 1800s.I would like to add that as a Catholic, the Pope is not considered God on Earth. The Pope is considered the highest basis of leadership in our "governing system." Our system does not however govern. Every parish has a pastor and possibly an associate who guides the members of the congregation of that specific parish in faith. A bishop does the same, except with a diocese (and an Archbishop with an Archdiocese). A cardinal does the same but for an even larger area. The Pope is the bishop of Vatican City, but also guides all the Catholics in the entire world.I do agree that MOST Christian churches that are not Catholic are some form of Protestant, but there remain to be many who are not. Seventh-Day Adventists are Protestants because when Martin Luther started the Lutheran faith, he placed 99 Theses on the door. And all Protestant religions have broken off from that. Because all Protestants have similar beliefs they are all classified in one group. However, different groups of Protestants disagree on some beliefs and traditions, so they are placed into different categories.
Yes, some religious groups consider Protestants to be heretics due to their beliefs and practices that differ from traditional teachings.

No, Protestants believe that God hears every prayer, and therefore the intecession of Saints is at best unneccisary; and at worst prayer to saints may be considered a form of idolatry.
According to the Catholic Church, members of the orthodox Churches are technically schismatics, because they do not recognize the pope but have the same basic beliefs. Protestants are technically heretics because they do not believe certain doctrines of the Catholic Church.
