A hint on question one. St. Augustine is the oldest permanent colony in what is now the United States.

read "oldest" as 1st.

Nice one. You assume all your answerers will be from the US. Care to answer some questions on the situation for Catholics under James I of England (VI of Scotland)? The effect (and date) of the Catholic Emancipation Act? Why there were no Jews in Britain in 1600?
Your own history isn't so good.

1. James Town - Anglican
2. I confess ignorance, but would say Protestant faith chiefly Baptist and Methodist.
3. I would surmise by all the "St." Hospitals out there it would be the Catholic

Who gives a ****? What do you know about the religious practices of the native tribes around Brazil? What do you know of the religious practices of the native tribes in Africa? Or does any of this even matter?
No.

Probably Christians, that is why they slaughtered the Natives without hesitation.

What's your point? You think the US is infallible?
