I wouldn't put both the American Revolution and the Glorious Revolution on the same plain. Although on the long run the latter did lead to greater freedom for Dissident English Protestants and English Catholics (through the Toleration Act in 1689), the defeat of the Irish Catholic forces at the Battle of the Boyne and Aughrim in 1690 and 1691 remain a horrible memory for Irish Catholics, especially in the North. 
American historian, Alan Taylor, calls the Glorious Revolution "a revolution" that was "fundamentally a coup spearheaded by a foreign army and navy" and notes that Maryland Catholics (along with Pennsylvania Quakers) didn't benefit at all from the Glorious Revolution once William suspended Lord Baltimore's right to govern and  barred Catholics (and Quakers) from voting. But most historian today say English Catholics benefited on the long run (but not, I repeat, Irish Catholics or colonial Maryland Catholics). It was not a good period for those two latter groups.
