Look, I know the Arch-Heretic Luther is still unpopular with the Vatican, but grow up. Protestant does not equal an atheist.
,...but that’s a good thing, not a bad one. We get rid of a culture of death and replace it with a culture of life.
Culture of life?! Are you nuts? Have you seen how cheap human life is in Latin America?
Sinaloa in Mexico is permeated with murder, revenge and drug smuggling, their folk music makes U.S. Gangster Rap sound like nursery rhymes.
From TJ down to Tierra del Fuego human life is treated like a commodity. The poor and uneducated are treated like pack animals or sex toys for the wealthy or tourists.
If this is the effect that Catholicism has upon a society then, no thanks.
No, Protestant is the first step on the road to atheist. Protestantism is inherently dualistic, pitting spirit against flesh - faith alone is worthy, "reason is the whore of the Devil". The natural response to this dualistic world view is to reject it as erroneous, which it is. But this rejection itself goes overboard into Enlightenment philosophy - reason alone is worthy, faith is "the opiate of the masses."
Sorry, but atheism is simply the mirror image of the Protestantism which has infected the country from its founding.
