Abstract

Cambridge University Press. pp. 442–443 Up until recently England and Wales could claim one of the largest groups of martyrs officially recognised by the Church, at least since ancient times. This has been recently challenged by the martyrs of the 20th century – those who suffered in Mexico, Spain, Nazi Germany and the Soviet bloc. In many ways these modern persecutions were even more horrific and intense than those of Elizabethan and Stuart England. But martyrdom is not something we can measure quantitatively. Every single martyrdom is a miracle of grace; by definition, every single martyr is a witness to the Good News. a b c d "The Oaten Hill Martyrs". Archived from the original on 23 February 2012 .

Thus it became a matter of establishing the guilt or innocence of an accused heretic in open court – a process which the lay authorities employed to reclaim "straying sheep" and to set a precedent for authentic Catholic teaching. [5] :p.102 If found guilty, the accused were first excommunicated, then handed over to the secular authorities for execution. [5] :p.102 The official records of the trials are limited to formal accusations, sentences, and so forth; the documents to which historians look for context and detail are those written by the accused or their supporters. [5] :p.102 John Rogers' execution [ edit ] Since the split with Rome, the Church of England sometimes uses the word hero or heroine to recognise those holy people whom the church synod or an individual church praises as having had special benevolence. It considers such muted terms a reversion to a more simple and cautious doctrine which emphasises empowerment ( subsidiarity) to all members and components of the church. Polydore Plasden (1563–10 December 1591), priest of the Archdiocese of Westminster (London, England) [6]
