""Today, almost 400 hundred years later, little has changed and though ''Guys'' are still placed on top of bonfires, (along with the occasional pope and unpopular contemporary politician) it is simply the continuation of a harmless tradition - the anti-catholic sentiment having long since disappeared.""

It depends on your definition of ""terrorist."" Since the goal of the gunpowder plot was to overthrow the government and start a revolution, I personally wouldn''t catagorize him that way.

I''d be happy to argue about the effects of religion on 16th century government (yes, I know 1605 is technically the 17th century, but James I was definately a product of 16th century society), but I think we''d get booted over to the P&C forum.
