That damn Cromwell...

*snip-snip* is all it takes. And even dead scholars/critics are useful. Look at Chaucer, after all.

Britain, lucky or not, has seen civil wars fought over religion and some folks there remember that. i think that's enough to discourage people from taking it too seriously.

Exactly. Patriotism finally went out after the 'Great War' and by then it had been too late for religion. As for our amazing ability to bear grudges, take a call at any London pub at around 11:30 pm and I swear there's ome old... man who actually fought at the battles themselves *sighs*. Apprently it's worse in Scotland.
