Being generally 'mixed New England', Catholic and Congregationalist. Episcopalian here, though.

That said though is "This way of thinking and identification is rare and quite alien to the Upper Midwest and thus difficult for me to comprehend" that difficult to understand?

I think we all understood and accepted that a while ago; it's just that you seem a little fixated on your difficulty comprehending it.

It's not inherently or automatically wrong for Protestantism to be more suited to the general culture of a particular time and place than Catholicism or Orthodoxy, but treating it as if it's particularly right is arguably suspect because Christianity has traditionally seen itself as apart from and to some extent opposed to the systems and structures of the World. (I would think BRTD would have some sympathy for this, as it is the element of Christian thought that according to interpretation can, in fact, make problematic the idea of Christian identity as an outgrowth of culture that he finds so objectionable.) If you think that contemporary society and its demands are themselves immoral or inane, as Cathcon and Progressive Realist both seem to although for what I'd imagine are different reasons, it's obviously not going to be to Protestantism's credit that it is more compatible with those demands.
