So, Luther was rather leery of John's Revelation, initially declaring it to be "neither Apostolic nor Prophetic" and that "Christ is neither known nor taught in it". What if this initial view endures and becomes the mainstream Protestant view. Revelation is classed with the rest of the Apocrypha and is excised from Protestant (and later Anglican) bibles along with Wisdom, Baruch, Tobit etc.
How does this affect the Protestant worldview given that eschatology now has to be based mainly on Christ's own parables in the gospels? Given that 90% of Protestant nuttiness derives from Revelation, I'd figure that the repercussions would be huge.
