	PART II.-The Act, Declaration and Testimony.
		For proof of which, consider the acts of parliament relative to the abolition of prelacy, and the establishment of presbytery.

		The decisions show a strong general tendency to seek any means of escaping those penal provisions of the Catholic Relief Act, 1829, which, though never actively enforced, still remain on the statute book.
		By an Act passed in 1793 Catholics in Scotland, who had made a declaration now no longer required, were put upon the same footing as other persons.

	Popery
		Prelacy and popery speedily began to work in the bosom of that community and steadily wrought its corruption and almost its total extirpation.
		As long as man is man, therefore, popery will possess this unhallowed advantage of enticing, and even entrancing, the ambition of the keenest aspirants.
		But popery professes to confer upon her clergy every didactic and presbyterial function which Protestantism has to bestow; while the former offers, in addition, this splendid bait of prelatic power and sacramental miracle-working....

	The Penal Code
		The most important provisions of this "Popery act" as it was called, which became law in 1704, were these.
		The present act increased the penalty; and a subsequent act in the reign of George II.
		The earl of Wharton, who came over as lord lieutenant in 1709, attempted to have the Test act repealed --the great grievance of the Presbyterians--so as to unite all denominations of Protestants against the Catholics; but he was not able to have this done.

	Aftershocks - James VII/II and the Glorious Revolution
		In the same year, the Mutiny Act prohibited formation of a standing army without Parliamentary consent, while the Toleration Act guaranteed limited freedom of worship to dissenting Protestants while retaining the penalties of the 1661 Corporation Act and the 1673 Test Act (which excluded non-Anglicans from public office).
		The Act also placed restrictions on the monarch's right to leave the country without Parliamentary consent, annulled the crown's rights to remove members of the judiciary, pardon ministers impeached by the Commons or to distribute patronage to MPs.
		In the early 17th century, Parliament was forced to listen to James VI/I's tedious lectures on the divine right of kings; now it was writing the 'job spec' for future Kings of Britain and deciding who was eligible.

	Reason Magazine - Potent Popery
		So far, just one person seems relieved that Ismail Royer, former civil rights coordinator for the Council on American-Islamic Relations and an active blogger and essayist, was one of the "Paintball 11," the group of D.C.-area men arrested last week on charges of violating the Neutrality Act of the United States Code.
		That person would be Stephen Schwartz, a Muslim convert, pundit, and author of The Two Faces of Islam, who used a column in FrontPage to paint Royer as a Wahhabi extremist and link him to Schwartz' own archenemies like Keith Sorel and Antiwar.com's colorful polemicist Justin Raimondo.
		Most spectacularly, he journeyed to Bosnia in 1994 to fight the Serbs—another action, ironically, that could theoretically have been prosecuted under the Neutrality Act.

	High Church: Tractarianism
		His conversion in 1845 nevertheless came as a shock.
		Given the English antipathy to "Popery" (in spite of recent events like the Catholic Emancipation Act of 1828), Newman's conversion undercut the Oxford movement by suggesting that Tractarianism inevitably led one to Rome, and it also created a great deal of personal ill-will towards Newman.
		The suspicion that while at Oxford he had not been honest about his beliefs or at least not about the direction they were leading him came out into the open in 1864 and lead him to write his Apologia pro vita sua, a spiritual autobiography which, remarkably, reversed public opinion of him.

		Mary began her tumultuous reign at 37 years of age, arriving in London amid a scene of great rejoicing.
		Following the disarray created by Edward VI's passing of the succession to Lady Jane Grey (Jane lasted only nine days), Mary's first act was to repeal the Protestant legislation of her brother, Edward VI, hurling England into a phase of severe religious persecution.
		She met with resistance at every level of society, and, unlike her father and brother, failed to conform society into one ideological pattern.

		But he erupts into print against English Whig administrations perceived to be sympathetic to the claims of Protestant Dissenters for relief from persecution by statute.
