I guess the Muslim equivalent would be Sunnis, Shias, and Ibadis. Though no one really cares about Ibadis I don’t think. Sufis? Eh, maybe.
Also, sluggards? Lol.

Misers because Protestants are stereotyped as greedy merchants like British and American or Dutch. They are seen to have the Protestant work ethic which instead of seeing manual labor or merchant buisness as lesser, Protestants especially Calvinists see them as being favored by God.
Sluggards because Catholics are often thought of valuing shunning hard work as in buisness activities and having too high a sense of nobility like Spanish or French nobility. A Spanish nobleman would be thought to rather die a poor man than work as a wealthy blacksmith because it would be not noble.
And Orthodox… I guess Russia maybe with their imperialism torwards Siberia? And uh Russia is Orthodox and Orthodoxy came from Greece so Orthodox pegasus connection?

The Inquisition actually considered belief in witchcraft to be superstitious nonsense and barely ever even investigated it, much less burned them at the stake.

Agreed, though your use of the term “denomination” informs me that you are a Protestant. Orthodox and Catholics both view themselves as the unified Deposit of Faith and the One True Church.  
And in truth, they are not far from reconciliation. Pray for a healing.

So which is which ?
 
Rainbow Dash - Catholic  
Rarity - Protestant  
Pinkie Pie - Orthodox
 
Makes sense to me.
 
@K9Thefirst1  
I highly doubt there was a”point” to this, it’s a joke. Also most Inquisitors (excluding those who became political tools) didn’t believe in witchcraft.

For the Protestant one: The most famous group of protestants (to Americans at least), would be the Puritans, the pilgrams that are famous for the Thanksgiving story.
 
Orthodox: The big Orthodox Church state in the middle ages was the Eastern Roman Empire (you may have heard of it referred to as the Byzantine Empire). Being on the edge of civilized society (in Europe) and on the borders of invading hordes such as the Mongols and the Huns, they would have looked little better than the Land Vikings.
 
Catholics: I’d like to direct you towards the fact that “Inquisition” was a thing, and that while Protestants did so as well, Witch Burning is also closely associated with said Inquisition.
 
There’s no doubt more to it than that, and these are clearly simply over-simplified generalizations, but that’s what the maker of this was aiming at.
