Morus Clynnog was in fact a far more complex, inventive and holy man than this sideways comment would suggest. He advocated building expertise and capacity among the students at the VEC so that on the restoration of the old faith they would be a convincing force in the land. In Milan, he wrote the first catechism in Welsh.<br /><br />It could be argued (as an hypothetical) that if the Church in exile had made greater efforts to hold together the reckless enthusiasm of the martyrs with the more measured approach of such as Clynnog, that the anti-Roman sentiments which eventually led to the Glorious Revolution and the Act of Settlement would not have gained the upper hand.<br /><br />More about Clynnog can be read here:<br /><br />http://wapedia.mobi/en/Morus_Clynnog<br /><br />VennoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
