Interesting.

Yeah. It's so interesting that our English forbears came here principally to get away from the statist church and its Romanist roots. That this country was rooted in RCC doctrine? I don't think so. Another attempt to claim a nonexistent superiority of principle.

How many Catholics signed the Declaration of Independence?

Who was the first Catholic Bishop in America?

When did Catholics arrive in Florida? California?

I just did my own research and went to many sites. The only churches I found mentioned were the Anglicans and Presbyterians. The Anglicans were trying to get rid of being tied to the Church of England. I even typed in, “were Catholics involved in our Declaration of Independence?” Not one site mentioned them. These sites did mention Christianity but no other denominations. I learned quite some time ago that most of the Mayflower passengers were Baptists and Methodists. That was after I discovered that 2 families, Brewsters and Allertons, are ancestors. I had no idea any were in my family tree and sure had no idea of their religions although many of my ancestors were Baptists and I found the church minutes of the church they attended in the early 1800’s. I love history.
