    What if the British Isles and England's overseas colonies were ISOT from July 1693 to July 1593?

    As you say your an empty headed bigot. Nothing more needs to be said. Not true on the 1st point. A number of religions have tended to be more tolerant but they do tend to get stamped out by the more barbaric ones. On the 2nd bit I define faith systems as those that derive ideas and...

    What if the British Isles and England's overseas colonies were ISOT from July 1693 to July 1593?

    As you say you have repeatedly claimed that the Catholic church is innocent and the victim of others when that has frequently not been the case and that no other religious groups has any moral validity. I'm also not aware of the Catholic church complaining about Charlemagne's atrocities in 782...

    In the same way as Catholic rulers did. Also as the article pointed out the Spanish massacres, fully approved all the way up their chain of command to Philip the deranged bigot were far larger than anything the local population were able to do to their attackers. Not to mention your...

    Untrue. It mentions atrocities by Protestants before those for Catholics but not any dates for the former. Both sides committed atrocities as such groups have done throughout history. Trying to pretend Catholicism with its long history of brutality and oppression is somehow saintly is...

    What if the British Isles and England's overseas colonies were ISOT from July 1693 to July 1593?

    While looking at sources for replying to other people I noticed this link. All sides in conflicts tend to commit atrocities and the Catholic powers were no exception so continuing to pretend otherwise just makes you look stupid. That you can't accept basic facts undermines everything you...

    What if the British Isles and England's overseas colonies were ISOT from July 1693 to July 1593?

    Good point on Parliament's reluctance to support a foreign born king working for what many would still see as his homeland. There is no clear military threat like Louis XIV was OTL. However in 1693 religion is still a factor, with James II's open Catholicism being the primary reason for his...

    What if the British Isles and England's overseas colonies were ISOT from July 1693 to July 1593?

    A 1793 to 1593 ISOT would be a massacre for the Mughals. By then Britain has not only much better tech but also some considerable territorial possessions, most noticeably Bengal. Not to mention being able in the longer run the resources they can draw from the rest of Britain. The Mughal...

    What if the British Isles and England's overseas colonies were ISOT from July 1693 to July 1593?

    I don't know about that. It has a centuries advance in military and economic knowledge and one of the great generals of the age. You think still pike based armies are going to stand much chance against muskets and more mobile cannons in an army lead by John Churchill! Also since this is...
