Mexico to this day has a ban on abortion, exceptions being carved out in some municipalities, under pressure from outsiders. Mexico outlawed slavery in 1829. When it comes to barbarity, post 1973 we are the world leader, and the Catholic Church is one thing athwart it, and often the only one.
Protestant “tolerance” is simply indifference to right and wrong. This is why any pastor can be “protestant” and therefore brother in faith, no matter waht counterscriptural nonsense he preaches. Such “tolerance” is what brought today’s Protestantism to near comlpete irrelevance in public life.

So you are going with “Virtuous Mexico, Barbarous USA” already?
“Protestant “tolerance” is simply indifference to right and wrong.”
You don’t understand religious tolerance, and it’s Protestant roots.
“Protestant” is not monolithic - there being many individual sects - all freely able to be practiced along with Judaism, and Catholicism.
You characterize “right and wrong” to be “Catholic and non-Catholic” - which you are free to do within your religion (and all do to some extent).
However, our founding fathers were scholars of history, and understood the mayhem and death that follows an absence of religious tolerance in the places they left.
They chose tolerance and life to intolerance and death.
You should too.
That's worked out real well for them. They don't do abortions, they just let the drug cartels slaughter people by the score when they adults.
Doesn't the Catholic church teach against corruption and murder as well?
