Merry ole England does have its way dispensing with its meddlesome clergy. Here we have Sir Thomas More under the axe of that outstanding Papist, Henry VIII. Thomas seems to be a poor choice of names for an English clergyman; they dont seem to fair too well there. Oh well, isnt his Utopia thought by neo-pedants to be rather communistic. Sir Thomas was a tad too attached to his ideals to suit God the King.
