Huh?  

You wrote:

he is not interested in this world, this mundane existence. The opposite is 
true for the Protestant. >>

This is largely false, certainly misleading, and it is a point addressed by 
nearly the entirety of my post.

<<Not so for the Protestant,who not only accumulates wealth in this world, 
does good works in this world--accumulates moral goodness or evil but 
accumulates sins. >>

Ditto.

<<The cycle, the life and death cycle of sin, repentance, forgiveness, found 
in religions from Catholicism to Native American religions to African 
religions, is absent from Protestantism.>>

Also false.
