A Catholic supporter is interviewing King James to find out why he changed his mind about letting the Catholics practise their religion as they wished.Part 1
CS: Good morning sir. Thank you for coming to talk to me about the attack that was planned for November 6th. It was so lucky you escaped.
KJ: Yes. I was very upset of course. I couldn’t believe that anyone would want to kill me. What did I ever do to Guy Fawkes and his friends?CS: But, sir, you are the person who caused this problem by changing your mind. First of all you let the Catholics practice their religion safely. Then you said it was no longer allowed. You must have known they would get upset.KJ: Please try to understand my difficulty. I thought there were only a few Catholics in the country.
CS: Why did you think so?
KJ: Well, because only a few people were put in prison every year for not going to the Protestant church.CS: I see. So you thought these were the only Catholics?
KJ: Yes.
Part 2
KJ: When I relaxed the law there seemed to be so many Catholics that I felt I’d done the wrong thing. I got frightened. I worried they might want England to be a Catholic country.CS: But did that matter?
KJ: Oh yes. All our friends were Protestant countries and all our enemies were Catholic ones.
CS: Mm! Did you ask Fawkes and Catesby if that was what they wanted?
KJ: No.CS: So the attack was planned Actually, you brought back what you wanted to avoid. What did you learn from it?
KJ: I should have talked to the Catholics. If I’d done that, there wouldn’t have been an attack because they would have been able to explain their point of view peacefully.
CS: Thank you, sir. Goodbye.
KJ: Goodbye.Do you think Guy Fawkes or King James were
