Dictatorship as well as fascism is condemned by the Church, publicly by Pope Pius himself in regard to Hitler. Francisco Franco did support the Catholic Church (which I find much better than letting the Communist run the country) he was not a perfect man, and indeed he did many wrongs and did use the Church as a scapegoat to ensure his power. But Francisco Franco in regard did enable Spain to stand up, as well as helping Spain conclude the civil war that plagues almost everyone.

In regard to Queen Elizabeth I, she was a Protestant, so I don't really know what she has to do with the Catholic religion. In regard to the Spanish Armada, that was like what, the 16th or 17th century? They fought not only for religion but also for political power.

I was talking to Alexander, Black Kitty.

What a put on it was.
You don't know what Elizabeth had to do with the Catholic Church or Mary Queen of Scotts among others? Thumbs up.

Funny thing is I don't recall anything in the Norton anthology that was as interesting reading as this. If every post on this website was as interesting as this one (and as different from each other as night is from day) I think I would be absolutely delighted!

I don't believe this piece has any political agenda. It makes me think of Da-da and some other things, but I could be waaaay off.

I don't think this piece belongs in any Norton anthology, because it's too good for the Norton anthology.
