I won't blame true Protestants for abortion and homosexuality.

You miss my point; I wasn't doing that either. I was responding to a post from a bit earlier in the thread that was trying to make the silly point that somehow Protestantism is better than Catholicism because Protestant countries are all wealthy and prosperous (untrue) while all Catholic countries are all poor and Third World (also untrue). This is because God blesses America for its Protestantism by giving it wealth and prosperity.

My first response was that such a line of reasoning is silly and fallacious, even if we do consider the measure of a religion's greatness its prosperity and wealth (I can cite several PRotestant countries that are not rich - Jamaica being one - and several Catholic countries that are not cesspools - Ireland being one).

My second response was that money and wealth should not be what a religious person considers important.

My third response was that I don't think God would want to bless a country that embraces abortion, homosexuality, contraception, pornography and all other manner of immorality. Regardless of "who started it."
