Struggle at Liberty University: politics or purity
Purity is usually the public face of sexism, so the Catholic Church gets no credit for this one. The White Evangelical movement is more about justifying racism for slavery and segregation (as well as sexism). High Church Protestantism has already faced some of the issues with science and sexuality, et al, that the Catholics are just coming around too. There are still Catholics who reject evolution because it conflicts with Genesis. The Evangelicals are more stubborn and the Anglicans have long ago accepted Darwin and biblical scholarship. Catholic colleges are generally less racist, although in most schools, the population of the basketball time is not matched in the student body. Sunday is still the most segregated day of the week. Don't get me started about some Catholic bishops on politics.
