In Scotland, for the first time since the Reformation, the majority relgion is . . .

Catholicism.


We noted last week that the Reformation is passing away.  This is pretty good evidence of that.  The Church of Scotland, Presbyterianism, had been founded by severe Calvinists, some of them breakaway clerics of the Catholic Church during the traumatic period.  Calvin's theological views were not only unique to him alone, but difficult to swallow, and have accordingly been much muted over time.  Be that as it may, at this point, among those Christians declaring a denomination, Scots have and are returning to the pre "Reformation" church.
