English Dissenters fled Europe for religious freedom. It's come full circle.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_DissentersEnglish Dissenters (16th–19th centuries) were Protestants who refused to conform to the Church of England's doctrines and structure
. They faced intense persecution, especially during the Restoration (1660s-1670s), with over 8,000 imprisoned. Key acts, such as the Clarendon Code, banned nonconformist meetings, restricted public office, and forced them to use the Book of Common Prayer.
