She explained that I had both arms in casts and so couldn't tell my left from my right. But I'd simply ask, weren't the Anglicans direct descendants of the Catholics? Just a simple matter of a divorce or two? <em>And</em>, with a nod to Mr. Holder, I don't think an Anglican was the inventor of Rap anyway. Well, I asked Mom about why I got confused.
