Thank you for the ping. The Arthurian / Holy Grail legends are neat, are wonderful, are mythic and are complete false. Jesus tells us that His mission is to the Jews; Him wandering the world like a Jewish Magellan is not documented and therefore we cannot accept it. Let’s face it; Britain was a loser of a territory; the people were few, poor, illiterate, had no skills, there was not at the time a lot of natural resources that could be used. It wasn’t until Henry Tudor that England started up the road to civilization. The only fascination with England in America is that England speaks English (in a fascinating accent to most Americans) and therefore they don’t have to translate from the Romanian or Finnish or Polish or even Serbian. It ain’t so. And there is no evidence that it was.

A fascination that has reached a cultic level.

That's what they said about Nazareth too.
