I’ll repeat: The politically incorrect truth is that free, stable, representative political institutions arose in and out of Protestant countries.

Nope. The Magna Carta was a product of a Catholic England.

So what? The Catholic Church saved civilization during the Dark Ages when Europe was being overrun by Vandals. There would be no opportunity for “free, stable, representative government” were it not for the Catholic Church. You do realize, of course, that the Catholic Church also developed the concept of the university (everything in the universe centering around God) and kept learning alive during the Dark Ages. Your Protestant heroes wouldn’t have even known how to think critically if it hadn’t been for the disciplines developed in Catholic universities.
