Do you have a higher opinion of Amazon or the Catholic Church?

Catholic Church, no contest. If it were the rainforest that might be a difficult choice.

The Catholic Church gets a bad rap for good reason but it's done a lot of great things over the centuries too.

maybe, but routinely murdering non-Catholics for the primary sin of being non-Catholic and whiney about it for most/much of the last 1800 years is a lot to overcome (not to mention the anti-Semitism and pedophilia)

This is basically blood libel. “The Catholic Church” never really murdered anyone at all, given how death penalties (which is I think what you’re talking about) where done by civil authorities, not the church. Some of the most Catholic parts of Europe (Poland, Hungary) had large Jewish populations, while Protestant countries had far less. And I doubt they’re any more pedophiles in the Catholic Church than Amazon.

Central Europe didn't have expulsions of Jews during late medieval times as much as Western Europe did, so that difference predates the Reformation. It is the case that the Catholic Church as an institution was very often less hostile to Jews, and certainly less violent, than Catholic secular leaders were.
