Not as long as you would think.
Well, if you think about it, too, that it wasn't the first people from Europe to come to the continental U.S., I mean—
Ponce de Leon, I remember that from growing up in Florida, came through St.
Augustine in the 1500s.
They actually had the oldest, I think it's the oldest church in America is in St.
Augustine.
It's a Catholic church.
The oldest serving congregation, like the oldest continuous meeting congregation in the U.S., I was told this, this may not be true, so don't hold me to it, but is actually in Ebenezer, Georgia.
It's a Lutheran church, and it was started and founded by my ancestors, the Dashers, Weissenbakers, Copens, the Salzburg Society that came into South Georgia.
But the point I was making, though, is there was stuff going on here, even like Squanto, one of the Indians that had helped.
the pilgrims really early on.
I was thinking about the significance of him, for example.
I mean, can you imagine, you know, how they would have survived without his influence and the fact that he had been captured by, I think, some Englishmen taken back to England.
Where he learned English.
Yeah, where he learned English.
So they weren't just like, but it is so interesting, though, that there was a little bit of life there, but, I mean, they weren't coming into any
you know, real way of living other than it was just complete and other.
I mean, they thought they were going into utopia.
They were actually going into the devil's den in terms of how difficult it would prove to be.
Well, I think that if you think about the Anglican Church, I think this was also mentioned, but the Anglican Church in England is very Catholic, minus the Pope.
