Why were Catholics not allowed in Georgia?

When Georgia was established as a colony, it was intended as a buffer between Catholic Florida and protestant Carolina, thus Catholicism was outlawed, which makes no sense to me as they didn't outlaw protestants. From the website New Georgia Encyclopedia, Catholic Church (see link below): Oglethorpe led the British effort to establish a colony in Georgia. He hoped to create an enlightened society in Britain's southernmost American colony, while the British wanted Georgia to serve as a buffer zone between (Protestant) British Carolina to the north and (Catholic) Spanish Florida to the south. Oglethorpe encouraged such diverse, often oppressed, groups as the Lutheran Salzburgers, who established the Ebenezer settlement, and Spanish and German Jews to settle in the new colony. In recognition of its role as a military buffer and a haven for religious outcasts, however, the colony forbade the practice of Catholicism. When Georgia converted to a royal colony in the 1750s, the ban on Catholicism remained. Catholics would not find acceptance in Georgia until the American Revolution (1775-83).
