** Broadly speaking, ''Abridged'' has a more heroic perspective of the Catholic Church (AlwaysChaoticEvil in the original). Maxwell has more [[EvenEvilHasStandards standards]] (such as a distaste for racism and pedophiles, never expressed in the original), despising the Nazis (while his original self didn't really care about the Nazis and gleefully admitted the Church worked with them during the war). They also remove a scene where UsefulNotes/ThePope remembers with fondness the days the Church and the Nazis were allies. Most importantly, Maxwell's [[spoiler:"crusade" is given a different context. While both in Abridged and the Original he's doing it against the orders of the Pope, in the original the entire Iscariot troops and Papal Knights give him his full support. In Abridged it's made clear all the armed battalions of the Catholic Church refused to follow him, so the battalions under Maxwell are bottom-of-the-barrel fundamentalists (three of which aren't even Catholic and one of ''them'' specifically joined just to fuck with Maxwell by running off with the equipment he gave them)]] he grabbed around the world rather than Papal Knights.
