Britain’s Imperial Protestants

“Wampum” was a currency that Eastern Indians made from beads they laboriously formed from the shells of clams.  The beads were drilled, polished, and strung together by hand.   Britain’s Imperial Protestants quickly saw an opportunity.

Catholics live in, and are, bubbles

Catholic Fundamentalism has been posting Daily Columns for over ten years. Recently, this one popped up from catholicfundamentalism.com. It  was an all-time favorite.
