And Catholics were not allowed to vote or hold public office in those days.

Talk about discrimuination.

That’s certainly mild compared to the treatment Protestants received at the hands of Catholic state churches, leading to their fleeing to the English colonies in North America.

Be grateful for the kindness rather than sour over state church advocates being excluded from elected office in a country that forbade a state church.

You do see the conflict, being an advocate of religious freedom, don’t you?
