    OK, so you responded to me talking about science and reason taking away women’s rights in 18th century England with a 19th century American religious resurgence. The religious aspect was not used to justify the removal of women’s rights in England.

    I’m missing something I think. What are you implying or showing?

      The British Great Awakening preceded the American one and ended with the end of Enlightenment.

      By your own admission, 1830 was not the age of Enlightenment.

        Ah, I had my date wrong. It was later than I remembered, and you were saying 1830 as that coincided with it.

        I’m sorry, it was my mistake from the start. Thanks for being patient with me.
