Vicious purges and attacks on Protestants by the Catholic Church caused many protestants to flee to Britain and the Americas. However there are still plenty of Protestants left in Europe and several Protestant countries.
Christians is a very broad term encompassing many religions, which include Catholics, yes, they are Christians too. So whatever Catholics don't do, it's reasonable to assume that some variety of Christian would do it.
Catholicism and Orthodoxy came first. The Protestant Churches began after when Martin Luther formed a new Church and from that example, sprang up more churches and caused a snowball effect that is why there are literally over a thousand denominations.

No. It was believed that Hilter's father was a jew, but was a drunk and eventually left Hitler and his mother. That is what supposively caused his hates for jews. Hitler's mother and father were Jewish. But he became agnostic.
Most protestants don't hate the pope himself but none don't believe in the authority of the pope and his infallibility. Some in the past have experienced bad popes on the throne and pass on the stereotype that all popes are bad.

Because the Brits invaded into Ireland without concent and the queen stole our l26 counties, Britsish Protestants does not own northern Ireland, the Catholics of Eire own the whole of Ireland, but when the queen stole our 26 counties it caused a lot of wild terrible trouble, and the true facts is the protestants hate the true Irish Catholics, but the Irish Catholics didn't like the prods so there is your anwser, now northern Ireland and Brits out of greed want to join up again with Eire, but this cannot ever happen, so I guess we are voting no to your fiscal treaty and no to northern Ireland they are with the Brits and can live and stay like Brits, and the real Eire people can live independent from harm and peace.

Jonathan Swift's attitude toward the dispute between English Catholics and Protestants, particularly evident in his work "A Tale of a Tub," seems to be one of skepticism and disillusionment. He often critiques both sides for their dogmatism and the societal harm caused by their conflict. Swift appears to advocate for reason and moderation, suggesting that the religious disputes serve more to divide people than to promote genuine faith or moral integrity. Overall, he seems to view the conflict as a source of folly rather than a matter of true conviction.
