Yeah, the world just fell apart with the Protestant Reformation.

The Catholic church was responsible for so much progress during the Dark Ages and the Inquisition.

Oh, wait a minute.......

Yes it was:

1.) University system

2.) Hospital system

3.) Patron of the Arts and Sciences

4.) Preserved the Scriptures

5.) Defeated the Muslim horde

It's unfortunate that a protestant will reject the Oliver Stone approach to history when it comes to the United States but then embrace it wholeheartedly without exception when it comes to the Church.

Brainwashed. It's a sad state of affairs.
