Carol, you know a lot more history than I do, but this is a point that
I always argue with my friend Lee about. *I* am very impressed with
Elizabeth I for not having killing any Catholic subjects for religious
reasons. The *only* person she ever killed for heresy is variously
described as an Arian or a Unitarian, but his offense was denying the
Trinity. But Lee is not impressed that Elizabeth I didn't kill her
Catholics, just because she had other oppressions upon them.
