5. What we don't hear is that they attempted to take over the Church
of England and failed in a coup attempt to make the King subservient to their moral laws. They landed on Plymouth Rock because they were exiled for treason, not for religious freedom.

The fact that we celebrate these whackjobs with a holiday should show anybody the falacy that is "Christians are persecuted" in this country. Of course we don't hear about them killing all the indians the day after the first Thanksgiving, do we? Historical Propaganda is what it's all about.
