re: #73 Gus 802
No, this is not comparable to what today’s theocrats are proposing today by any strech of the imagination. I am merely showing that the Puritans were in fact religious extremists. The Puritans also paved the way for what we consider religious extremist in America today.
Oh, they were religious extremists. They were NUTS. They also created an enormously paranoid and ugly society. Puritan New England, Calvin’s Geneva—they were not nice places to live.
