“Lots of Catholics leave the RCs to join Protestant churches, too.”

You’re right, especially when they want to move on to the second husband/wife.

While Catholic immigration is massive, many of them become Evangelicals or at least Protestant and as a result, switch to voting for life and traditional marriage, the pro-life movement does pretty good with them and gets about 50% of the vote of Hispanics that become Protestants.

I do not understand that comment, since Roman Catholics seem to divorce and remarry without any punishment I’ve heard of from their church.

Communion appears to be served to everyone and I have seen not so much as an inquiry about anyone’s faithful obedience prior to its being served.

Guessin’ you don’t know much about the Baptists. They’d have less problem having a serial killer teach a SS class or preach than a divorce-and-remarried person.

I know as many, probably more, divorced-and-remarried Catholics as I do protestants.

All denominations have their ideal standards; few members follow them 100%.
