Easier Peter, we all make mistakes. After all, this is a podcast done on his own time, and is not info you are going to need to pass an exam. Im sure he wishes to pass along complete, an accurate info. Also, i highly doubt there is a grand conspiracy to deceive any of us. That being said, you are of course right Peter, about it NOT being bloodless, nor was it supported by the majority, although im sure it was supported by SOME OF the people, lol

1688 was NOT bloodless and was NOT supported by "the people." You would fail O-level history for asserting this Protestant propaganda view.
