Wilson presents Mexico as a country struggling with the consequences of Spanish colonization, which he argues has left a lasting impact on its political and religious institutions. He is particularly critical of the Catholic Church's influence, which he views as an obstacle to Mexico's progress and modernization. The book explores various facets of Mexican society, including the government, education system, economy, and indigenous cultures, but the focus remains on the Church's role in shaping the nation's development. Wilson contrasts Catholicism in Mexico with Protestantism, advocating for what he sees as the moral and social superiority of the latter. Although Mexico and Its Religion provides valuable historical insight into mid-19th-century Mexico, it is also shaped by Wilson's Protestant and American biases. His negative portrayal of Mexican Catholicism and his recommendations for religious reform reflect a broader 19th-century Protestant critique of Catholicism, particularly in Latin America. Wilson's work is both a reflection of its time and a source of information on the religious and political dynamics of Mexico in the post-independence era.
