Ah...OK. Thanks for the information! I didn't expect to learn so much. We don't even learn much about our own nation's religious heritage; few people over here realize that the Puritans/pilgrims were religious radicals escaping their homelands in search of religious freedom. I don't think even parochial schools cover religion in American history. Of course, that's probably because the majority of parochial schools are Catholic, and none of the American founders were Catholic.
Sorry to assume you're part of the UK! I just figured everyone in the British Isles was part of the UK by now, barring the Republic of Ireland.
