Guy Fawkes was a martyr for the Catholics.

Yeah seriously. Fawkes was a fighter for Spain and the Catholic Church. His goal was to end the slightly more egalitarian Protestant revolution in England by restoring Catholic domination. If the Gunpowder Plot had actually succeeded, Britain would probably look less like an anarchist commune and more like the fascist police state Alan Moore warned us about.

And yes, how Guy Fawkes became a poster boy for many modern wannabe "revolutionaries" (even before "V for Vendetta") is beyond me. Catholicism and fascism pretty much ran hand-in-hand during the 30s and 40s.

The religion of Catholicism has always been perceived as some power hungry sect under the guise that it is God's will.
I am a christian but I am not of any particular denomination mostly because it's annoying to keep track.
