Prot or not, Western music( of which the Beatles are masters like no one else) is based on the system of the RC Church. If one wants to listen to Eastern music, be my guest-- I do not like Ravi Shankar. Until the Prot 'reformation', the English were Catholics. As far as America, Catholics were here 100 yrs b4 Prots anyway-- have you heard of Columbus or Cortez?
All the land west of Miss was at one time Catholic. This is also true of Florida and the gulf coasts of Miss and Ala.
