Close to one of the lesser used gates to Salisbury Cathedral is a plaque. Although on a wall, it is easy to miss.
For what are you prepared to be burned at the stake?

I dare say no one is willing to be burned at the stakes any longer.

Not sure the original chaps could be called willing 😀 Just love this pic, though. I would go a very long way to preserve our freedoms. George Orwell’s 1984 always instilled chill dread in me.

Thought-provoking question — a decision which most of us are not faced with making. However, there are Christian martyrs around the world who, even this day, are imprisoned and facing death because of their beliefs…as well as some who have recently died. It’s hard to keep an eternal perspective on life, but it’s the best way to face all dangers — and the reward is “out of this world”(!) 🙂

A hidden plaque with a very interesting history. Burning at the stake seems like a terrible way to die though.Reminds all of us that at one point there was a certain era we don’t want to live at. Wonderful post. Happy Halloween.

Wow! That is sad and pretty amazing to read the plaque. 😦
I’ve been out of the loop with power outages and conferences… Will catch up on comments soon. TY! 🙂
