The Southern American colonies were religiously diverse. The churches set up in the area were Roman Catholic, Protestant, and variously Quaker and Puritans. Keep in mind that the colonials moved here for religious freedom, so whichever groups were persecuted in England moved to America for the freedom they felt they deserved. This resulted in a vast quantity of religions, although they were almost always forms of Catholicism.

The reason Roman Catholicism is the most followed religion in Latin America is, most of these territories were once conquered and settled by Spain, France and Portugal, which are overwhelmingly Catholic on their own. The new masters imposed their culture -- including religion -- upon the conquered Native American peoples.
