In certain respects, Continental philosophy has a strong "Protestant" thrust: As Critchley describes it, the philosophical vocation is to produce crisis in a world where the crisis is that there is no recognition of crisis. Through critique of everyday praxis, the philosopher aims to create crisis that will lead to emacipation from current praxis. Every Continental philosopher is a Luther.
But, if the earlier post has any value, perhaps it's better to say that every Continental philosopher is a Borromeo.
