Even though I am 8th gen Australian, I still have a very British view of history. I know this may seem like an odd question, but in many way British history is entrenched in an anti Catholic world view. The mythical view of British history as a fight against the big powerful Catholics nations, which where the force of evil coming to take away liberty and freedom. Of course I know that to be simplistic but the epic British stories all lean that way...
Spanish armada come to invade and being destroyed by the breath of God.
Pope basically putting a death warrant on Elizabeth I, and her survival of the plots.
Bloody Mary torturing people, Elizabeth not wanting windows into people souls
Gunpowder plot
William I with papal blessing and backing, ending the elected British monarchy and harrowing the north.
William and Mary in the glorious revolution replacing despotic James II
Even The Tale of Two Cities, mirrors Protestant Britain verse Catholic France.
To be Catholic to me would be turn so much of history upside down?
