5. What does Joseph Pearce mean by "True England"?


Fonch | 2535 comments That the England that we know is false and the true England ever been catholic and the bad called Reformation forced to England to be protestant. C.S. Lewis wrote about England (the bad), and Logress (the good). England despite the Reformation continued being majoritily catholic. Pearce it is said that the soft totalitarian of the stuarts especially James I would have more success than the repression of Henry VIII, and Elizabeth I and the nationalism that the protestantism employed since the beggining of the Reformation. It is interesting one thing Pearce as Chesterton, Belloc, J.R.R. Tolkien has never employed United Kingdom he writes only about England.
