Do Catholics have a serious duty to consult the Magisterium in areas of right and wrong?
Catholic Answer
Indeed they do, for the simple reason that the Magisterium is nothing other than the voice of Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ, as He has chosen to communicate it to Christians of today. When He ascended into heaven and left the Holy Spirit to guide His Body, the Church, He placed His Vicar - St. Peter, and his successors, the Popes; and the Apostles, and their successors, the Bishops as His Voice on earth: Luke 10:16
"Whoever listens to you listens to Me. Whoever rejects you rejects Me. And whoever rejects Me rejects the One who sent Me."
from The Catechism of the Catholic Church, second edition, English translation 1994
2034 The Roman Pontiff and the bishops are "authentic teachers, that is, teachers endowed with the authority of Christ, who preach the faith to the people entrusted to them, the faith to be believed and put into practice." (Codex Iuris Canonici, canon 747, section 2) The ordinary and universal Magisterium of the Pope and the bishops in communion with him teach the faithful the truth to believe, the charity to practice, the beatitude to hope for.

However Catholicism still remains the largest single Church in the United States.

How did Catholicism change the new world?
The easiest way to describe this is to compare those areas settled by the Puritans, and those settled by the Catholics. To this day there are no Native Americans in areas settled by the Puritans. The Puritans viewed the Native Americans as "unsaved" and thus not worthy of consideration. In one instance, they made a gift of small pox infected blankets, against which the Native Americans had immunity, and wiped out the entire tribe. In areas where the Catholics settled, they preached the Gospel, educated the natives, and even, when a small pox vaccination was developed immediately shipped supplies of it to the new world to vaccinate the natives.
