I suppose you'll now want to revive the controversy of Laudabiliter..." that marvelous Papal Bull from Pope Adrian, which allowed, nay encouraged, King Henry to invade Ireland, authorizing him to cleanse the Irish Church of Druidical influences, and straighten out the Welsh and Scots while he was about it.

The Culdees is it, then? Father Knox is doing 500 RPM in his grave under the cold peat.

I was asked a question that seemed to beg an opinion. I attempted to summarize long events into an understandable digest that takes rather longer to get a good grip on - not for complexity; but, for volume. But, I'm sure that Rome exterminating folks they didn't want to hear from "in the name of Christ" played a huge role in getting Catholicism extricated from the Britains.. which seems to be your main questions. Knox didn't shy from the sword. Perhaps he should have; but, he fed you like for like which you find injurious.
Do tell.
