Remembering the French religious incursions into the New World, it is hard to imagine how they could have come so far as to outlaw religious expression in public. The Anishinaabe name for the French people is Wemtigozhii, referring to the cross they carried. Their entire mission was to convert to Catholicism. In this latest wave of secularism, it seems the pendulum has just about reached its outer limits on the other side, similar to the Soviet Union.
