The term is meant to apply to Christians whose denomination originates from the Protestant Reformation. Usually this means Christians who are not of the Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, or Anglican churches. However, the term can be controversial, as not all people agree on who is or is not Protestant. For example, many groups a Catholic person would likely refer to as Protestant would not call themselves that.
