In the 1950 all Christian denominations condemned abortion, most accept or are muted now, except for Catholics and Orthodox. In the 1970’s most (not all) condemned homosexual unions, the Catholic and Orthodox (and only a few Protestant denomination) still do so.

this is only true of liberal protestant denominations—that have become a shrinking minority among protestants.

Which undermines the whole concept of a “Protestant”Church. Some Protestants protest that they don't like statues and religious pictures (yet put them in the Hall of Statues in the Capital or in their garden), others want the right to divorce (as Henry VIII the founder of the Episcopal Church did), others accept open sodomites as "clergy", where does it end? Either Our Lord sent they apostates (Matthew 28:18) or we are all free (Sola) to decided for ourselves.

Did Jesus Christ who promised His followers to be always with them wait 1519 years (Luther) or 1535 (Henry VIII), or 1720 (Wesley) or 1960 (Pat Robertson) to fulfuill his promise?
There is no "Protestant" church today adheres to the Diet of Worms or the Augsburg confession. It is one evolution after another.
