Why is it that Protestants are so reluctant to acknowledge the terrible deeds their sect did in the name of Jesus?
I believe it was you who began casting stones inside of the glass house, brother. The Pope has apologized to the Jews and to Protestants who were persecuted by overzealous men in the name of the Church. Where is the Protestant apology?
Oh, well, considering that there is no central "mouthpiece" for this group of people, I suppose we won't hear any apology, will we? Does that mean you can go around and blame the Catholics for all of the evil perpetrated in the name of Christ?

The Historical record is what it is. It was your sect that first merged with the state and then used the power of the state to persecute Christians. It took about 1200 for the Reformers to catch up to your example.
