It makes sense. There hasn’t been any Christianity in the Church of England since before the Reformation. They used the name of Jesus to support their claims of divine right of rulers which has left the world with people like King Charles and Prince Harry. They burned witches and tried for heresy anyone who had differing political opinions, which differed from the monarchs and the bishops. Church of England has always been a political construct, much like the Catholic church since the days of Rome, just with different corrupt leaders.

Yep- that is why folks left England and started their/our own country free from persecution by the government and their “official religion”. People were persecuted and arrested if they didn’t toe the church of England line.
