Entry: A Meditation for Guy Fawkes Day Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/a_meditation_for_guy_fawkes_day#8445 Post contents: For John Ball it seems history in England started with the Henry VIII. Before that nobody was there. Mr. Ball, have you ever heard about the Dissolution of the Monasteries that took place between 1536 and 1540? Much early than Guy Fawkes, the Spanish Armada and Mary Queen of Scots. Talking about traitors, I think the real traitors where the guys who did the revolution. Traitors to their country, Merry Old England, which they turned into something bitter. Traitors to their history, traditions, and religion. It was written they were going to end very bad. And they did. As Chesterton put it the Protestant Reformation “was the rising of the rich against the poor”. You cannot do better than that. Sent at: 2008 07 09
