Jesus is merely insisting that God created the Soul which was not created by our human father and the Soul is what is important so that Jesus makes that strong statement as whos is really the Father is God.

That is the spirit of the message of Jesus: to give God the importance He deserves.

I would be ridiculous to bring the discussion to call or not call a person Father, forgetting the essential of the message of Jesus.

If you call no one Father but do not follow Jesus’ message it is an empty habit: you call no one Father but do not give God the Place it deserves.

Anyway, what is the difference between Protestants and Catholics is that they feel that they have the right to interpret by onself the scriptures. That gave rise since Luther (500 years) to more than 200 Protestant churches and it is growing. One day, My Opinion (MO), all of them disappear, fragmented by millions of interpretations.

The interpretations is to be done by the Community around the Pope. If one is to answer each individual Protestant interpretation , one has to sit down do no nothing else in life…
 
There are numerous places in the Scriptures where St Paul calls himself a spiritual “father” to various people and (if memory serves) they his spiritual “children” (thus implying his spiritual fatherhood of them.
