I think the fact that the Bible was central to the no-conformists faith meant that most regarded them as legitimate Christians, despite the "law" saying otherwise.
Black Holes happen when God divides by zero.

I'd agree there, and welsh non conformists have a repuation of being very true to their faith. I suspect some of them (or most of them) would not have wanted to be married in a church of england church. Not all villages had a Cof E church, but they' have had a chapel. Where I grew up, there were only a handful of houses until the 70's, but there were two chapels!
