Generally speaking, Protestants believe that the wine and bread in communion take on a special meaning but not in a literal sense. They do not believe the wine is the actual literal blood of Jesus and they do not believe the bread is the actual literal body of Christ. They believe He symbolically offered Himself as the Paschal Lamb of atonement. In my opinion, this is something we can debate vigorously but do not have to divide over.
Protestants believe that transubstantiation is not biblically supported and that the Eucharist is a symbolic remembrance rather than a literal transformation of bread and wine into the body and blood of Christ. They often interpret the Last Supper accounts symbolically rather than literally, leading to a different understanding of the sacrament.
There are three syllables in the word "protestants."

protestants to catholics
Most protestants don't do this. A few in the "holiness" and Free will Baptist denominations do this because in the culture of Jesus' day one of the signs that a woman was a prostitute is that she would wear jewelry. Most Protestants, however, believe that since our modern culture does not equate jewelry with prostitution, there is nothing wrong with jewelry.
St. Ignatius of Loyola devoted his life to founding a religious Order for the dual purposes of reconverting the protestants back to Christianity, and to the missions - preaching Christianity to the pagans. If you had to say that he thought something was wrong with the Church, it was obviously that the protestants had left it, and that it had not yet spread throughout the entire world.
Presbyterians are a subset of Protestants, so they are Protestants. Not all Protestants are Presbyterians, however.
Tudor religion was a problem to the Tudors since there where protestants and Catholic's when Henry VIII came on the scene it all went wrong cause he was a Catholic which means he was against the Protestants so he then shut all protestant churches down since he wasn't a protestant and then made them all catholic churches so that ment them that there wasn't a church for the protestants so the catholic's didn't like the protestants and the catholic's didnt like the catholic's !
