What you are describing is Solo Scriptura. Here is a link that might help you understand the difference between Solo Scriptura and Sola Scriptura.
sola scriptura, invented by Luther.

solo scriptura ?

Point being,

neither is taught in scripture, about scripture.

So what? Sola scriptura is a hermeneutical principle, not a doctrine.
I can’t speak to solo scriptura

Most Protestants I speak to, it (sola scriptura) is a central doctrine.

That’s the problem with the term”Protestant “.
I find the same belief goes with other non Catholic people who go by other names instead of Protestant.

the Catholic Church, who gave the world, the scriptures we have, never took the view of SS.
True to a degree, but irrelevant. You said other Protestants. They’re not Lutheran. They belong to other traditions. If Luther “invented” sola scriptura, then what they say is also irrelevant.

What can I say? They followed Luther on THAT and many other ideas he taught.

Obviously not. Some think it’s a doctrine. Some think it means nothing else considered.
They obviously didn’t follow him.

yeah, some think all sorts of stuff. 🙂 I like highly descriptive terms

Yet,

every non-Catholic, I’ve talked with, believes in SS
 
I’m jumping in…

Yes, I agree with all Catholic teachings, hands down, But…

Our Protestant brothers and sisters should NOT be looked down upon. They love and serve our Lord as we do. I have been to many Pentecostal and protestant services, and they Love the Lord as much as Catholics. The goal of EVERY christian is to search for the truth, as there is only One truth.

All Christians should study\research not only scripture , but their own Traditions, and most importantly(for me anyway) The history since the time of our Lord.

I will absolutely believe the Church(Roman Catholic) contains the full truth, but will never disregard my brethren believers in Christ. I pray we all search for the Truth…

Christ never wanted division between us, and we should feel the same way!!! Just my two cents…

A narrow circle, perhaps. Certainly the EO doesn’t claim SS. Anglicans are not uniform in such an adherence. AFAIK, neither are Methodists.
But as there are different beliefs regarding the practice, it is irrelevant to say they all believe in SS.
What each tradition believes is up to their teaching.

Actually, it’s A rather wide circle. Those that just go by “Christian” or “Evangelical” etc.

Forgot to exclude them from the mix. Probably because I never run into any Orthodox, that is, minus a few I’ve talked to on these forums

I haven’t run into any Anglicans, regardless of stripe, in the people I’ve communicated with, minus those here on these forums… that is.

Most groups I run into don’t claim belonging to any mainline Protestant denomination. They claim the generic, “Christian” & “Evangelical” label.

And hence there are tens of thousands of different protestant churches but still only one Catholic Church…

You and both go by the former, but the latter, when connected to “American”, does have a number of adherents.

Hence my reference to a narrow circle.

People I talk to, who are Catholics, don’t resist or avoid, calling themselves Catholic.

As you will see, this is NOT from me. The numbers appear way larger than, just a narrow circle https://www.pewforum.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/7/2017/08/US-Protestant-Reformation-FINAL.pdf
