Protestantism

Many considered Martin Luther to be an apostate when he first voiced his opinions against the Catholic Church, but he is celebrated today as the father of modern Protestantism.

Russian Protestantism was born in the northwest of Russia.

Many Inuit in the Arctic have turned to Protestantism, away from their traditional Animistic belief system.

Mama and cousin Eve often wax nostalgic about Roman Catholicism, evident when we have pasta meals at home. They are both converts to Protestantism. My late father Frank (or Jun) was the pioneer in my extended family, largely Roman Catholic, for conversion. Also, my paternal grandmother Lydia followed. My maternal grandfather Macario was already a Protestant of the United Church of Christ. He read literature from Baptists under Papa's influence. My Roman Catholic maternal grandmother Bebe was happy-go-lucky and couldn't care less about these things. My paternal grandfather Pito (Francisco) listened to Papa's witnessing and was proselytized to even at the death bed, when he died in his seventies.

In Buddhist cosmology, there are several heavens and several hellworlds. I am thinking that our Earth could possibly be just one of the hellworlds. Baptist Protestantism is similar to Pure Land Buddhism or Amidism, because they both require only faith on a superperson, either Jesus or Amitābha Buddha, respectively. Of course, both Buddhism and Christianity have other different sects. Other sects of Buddhism do not really require faith on a superperson.

Christian fundamentalism is a religious movement common in the American South, different from more traditional forms of Protestantism.
