Cool

It's a long time since I did this in school, so without Googling it, IIRC it was Henry VIII's creation of the C of E and dis-associating with Rome, and then the dissolution of monasteries?

Isn't there a 'wider' reformation about Martin Luther and protestism too?

I've found a reference to it on the Internet.

Only what the average layman knows. I have to be honest, the difference in Church nomenclature has always amused me - Methodist, Reformist, Baptist, i'm sure there are many others. I almost admire some people's fascination with religion to bother with sub-sections of essentially the same story. Makes zero sense to me but then i'm the ultra-logical protagonist, not the ideological dreamer

If one decides to become a Christian or is born-again, it's rather important that one selects a denomination that best reflects one's spiritual journey. To an ideological dreamer, you present as the Tin Man from the Wizard of Oz.

Is that because it's alien to you? Do you secretly harbour a desire to have an internal, subjective life, rather than one dominated by external data? Can you imagine the softening of your heart?
