Carol, Bush is a latent dictator and has said he was (abeit jokingly). I think of certain
corporate actions as dictatorial in practice. Oligarchs can be dictators.

"Just keep in mind that it was the Protestant Reformation which provided much of the impetus which lead to the Renaissance and the Enlightenment and the same carried over with the advance of reason right up until today."

Bear in mind also that the Protestant Reformation gave rise to witch-burning and the subjugation of reason and the advancement of science as well. Reason is being hampered by the vestiges of the Protestant Reformation even today as we find the rise of Fundamentalism and ignorance surrounding us in a dictatorial manner.
