That’s precisely what I meant. Both have religion in spades - but only one has a toxic culture around it. It probably helps that Portugal was a neighbour to religious lunatics for much of its existence, and even had a few deeply unpopular monarchs who invited the inquisition in. It’s still there in the cultural memory - they take god seriously, but the idea of religious persecution and the involvement of church in state is pretty much anathema to the average Portuguese.

Evangelicals are not Puritans, nor is there a theological ancestry from modern evangelical christianity to Puritanism.
