Far too much emphasis is on zozchial justitz, and now, for heavens' sake, global warming. Churches should stick to morals and souls. I Agree.

It depended on who was in power whether it was the Catholics or the Anglicans/Protestants that were persecuted. Oh and the current ‘naughty’ Queen has granted me an extra day off to celebrate her birthday ;-) Although it was Henry that initiated the rift to enable him to change laws to get his own way it wasn’t only Catholics that were persecuted during those unpleasant times.

During John’s captivity he was asked if he was loyal to the Queen and he always maintained his loyalty was with the Queen. I find it highly unlikely that a priest would plot to kill.

Religious bodies have business with man’s soul and political bodies with something more worldly. Sadly throughout history it seems inevitable that the two get entangled.
