Was it surviving pretty well in a democracy back then? There were major corruption issues that caused people to rebel and become Protestants. Those Protestants had a huge influence on the development of Western democratic culture.
As did Catholics, what's your point? The Church cleaned up the corruption. Are you trying to say something like capitalism wouldn't have fluorished if not for Protestantism?
