"Religious Tolerance"

[edit]

One finds the use of this term, which was uncited, possibly inexact.

The Roundheads in general were highly bigoted against Anglicans and Catholics (who were another dissenting group in English religious politics of the period). Their record, particularly against Catholics is well known in the UK as well as in Ireland and the colonies.

It may be perhaps more apt to say that he was concerned with tolerance for his particular brands of non-conforming religion, not by and between all sects of Christianity, whether Protestant or not. Unless there is specific language to suggest otherwise from his own hand, the idea that he was a proponent of what we today understand as religious tolerance is so remote a notion as to be absurd.

Sentence fragment

[edit]

The second sentence of the second paragraph of the "Reputation" section is a fragment and I, at least, am unable to remedy it since I cannot discern exactly what is meant.

"Although his personal religious beliefs as noted in a few of his writings from prison were at times were sometimes baffling, by readers as varied as Richard Baxter, Clarendon, Gilbert Burnet and David Hume." Animadversor (talk) 07:27, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Arms

[edit]

We might expect the sleeve to be longer at the backside of a gauntlet. But a gauntlet never had sheet metal on the inside of the hand. The images on the arms don't show sinister gauntlets one might bend. Who has had the theory that these gauntlets heraldically might be meant to be sinister at all?
