There is much to be learned from "the Guy".  The victors write their own version of the story.  Don't listen to just one side, get the whole story. Sometimes it takes centuries to figure out the obvious.

The article had many good points, but the fact remains that Guy Fawkes was merely a pawn of the Catholic Church just as much as his enemies were pawns of the Crown.

Most of us are slaves to one form of authority or another, so the question becomes less one of fighting for your freedom than one of how much you're willing to put up with from your chosen authority figure.
