MODERATORS
This might be a regional thing. At least in Germany, where the reformation took place, the term Christian include all groups, protestans, catholics, orthodox etc.
In Austria, when people say "Christian", I'm convinced that 90% of people only think of the Roman Catholic Church. Even though the term includes all groups.
Isn't it like that 90% of christians are actually Roman Catholics there?
Even more I believe, yes
It's really a US thing. That's where most of the whacky religious stuff comes from these days.
Most Catholic people in the mid 19th century in the Americas were imagrants or Mexican and considered non-white.
