During certain periods of British history it has been illegal to worship as a Roman Catholic (for example during the rule of Oliver Cromwell), and at other times as a Protestant (for example during the reign of "Bloody" Queen Mary; however, since Christianity was first introduced to the British isles, it has never been illegal to go to church in Britain. Since St Ethelbert (the first English Christian king) was baptised in around 600 AD, and Christianity subsequently spread throughout the kingdoms of Britain, British monarchies - and by extension governments - have always been (at least nominally) Christian.
