I think Spain can't be compared to the US in this matter. Up to the present day, there are still some priests, either carlist or francoist, that don't agree with this "democracy". Of course they are a small minority, but some can still be found. I wonder if there is a single priest in the US thinking this way, since the US was born as a constitutional liberal State and the so called freedom of religion, which the traditional Church always stood against (except for freedom to the true religion) is a dogma of the US since the beginning. I wonder how the US priests of the SSPX think politically. It would also be interesting to see where the influences came from for Vatican II changes to take place. Perhaps they originally came from catholic clergy men from non-catholic countries. That would explain something...
Signed the letter before replying.

For what it's worth, as I approach official conversion to Catholicism I think that having been raised in Protestantism served as a basic but incomplete introduction to Christianity. However further instruction is required in my case to become fully Christian. The US was founded with a noble idea in mind but the end result has become a bit of a sociopolitical horror and the leading power of the world degeneracy as it's the direct inheritor of the British Empire. Now the Obama gang is ruling here- the end result of decades of progressive scheming.

The US was founded with the idea of freedom of the Christian religion in mind since there were many here who thought of themselves as Christians- including Catholics. The founders of the US were men who were of English descent, a country which had been outside of communion with the Church since the schism of King Henry VIII. However prior to this, for about a millenium, England had been a Catholic country for a millenium.

Sorry, digressing into history here. I know that my country isn't seen in the best light here but it's the only country I've ever had- and if I can do my individual part to make it more aware of Catholicism I will do what I can.
