Where's the Protestant Father Coughlin? The KKK maybe? Those latter are less "Protestant" than Coughlin was always a Catholic being as the latter were not formally part of mainstream "Protestant" Churches and were in fact much opposed by a majority. Coughlin, in comparison, kept his official RCC collar regardless if some portion of RCC hierarchy were opposed to (by degree or extent?) some of Coughlin's rhetoric.

Yes, I'll grant you the KKK is in the domain of Protestantism, and I notice the similarity where its objects of hatred were both the Catholics and the Jews; odd that. As for Caughlin, well, he kept his collar but lost his show and his audience. There is a judgment, which point Protestantism often muddles, saying, in essence, works do not matter.

Actually, it is fully outside of Protestant confessions, and has long been condemned by majority of the same.

Though most members of the KKK saw themselves as holding to American values and Christian morality, virtually every Christian denomination officially denounced the Ku Klux Klan.

Coughlin did not lose his show due to anyone from within hierarchy the RCC having taken it away from him.
