What two groups made up the majority of immigrants during 1840 -1850?
European Protestants
Why were British troops sent into Northern Ireland in 1969?
Because there was a break down of law and order in Ireland. Catholics were being treated unfairly and protestants were outnumbering them. There was no talking of this situation in Parliament so the problem would never be solved. The catholics and protestants were on the brink of civil war. Of course the border made in 1921 to separate northern Ireland and Ireland was only meant to be temporary however this just added to both catholics and protestants frustration. So of course the British troops had to be sent it, it was inevitable.
Why did lots of people in England believe the rumour that 200 000 protestants had been massacred?
This question most probably refers to the Ulster Massacres, which were part of the Irish Rebellion of 1641. As that rebellion was going on, Parliamentarians in England circulated pamphlets in which they made the claim that 200,000 protestants in Ireland had been killed. The purpose of such propaganda was surely to whip people into a greater fury than they were already in with the English Civil War looming. Wild claims were being made about all sorts of things, bedeviling all sorts of people from papists to witches. Those were times of hysteria, and people were not being rational. (I have not been able to find any other reference to a massacre of Protestants of that number. The St. Bartholomew's Day massacres were smaller, and the Massacres of 200,000 Armenians in the 1890s were not of Protestants.)
Why did the Protestant Reformation lead to conflict?
The Protestant Reformation set Catholics and Protestants against each other throughout the empire. It also made one religion the required belief system for a multi-country empire, which caused conflict since Protestantism disagreed with many other belief systems across Great Britain.
What were some persecutions on the first Irish immigrants in the US?
In the late 1820's and into the 1830's Irish immigrants were treated as second class peoples for a number of reason. At that time in the US, the people were a Protestant majority, and the Irish, mainly poor and Catholic, were a cause for concern among the Americans, in the cities where the Irish settled which were at first in Boston and New York City. During this immigration period, the US was in the midst of the Second Great Awakening, which was a spark to an evangelical resurgence of Protestants.As an example, the antagonism of Protestants to Irish Catholics came to a point in Boston where Protestant workingmen stoned the homes of Irish people in the main immigrant locations in the city, There were frequent clashes between each groups throughout Boston, actually. The Protestant working classes saw the new Irish people as ones willing to take low wages and thus, they took jobs away from the settled in Protestants. There was fear that Catholics owed their allegiance to the Pope in Rome rather than to US governments. This prejudice lasted quite a long time. In fact, at the beginning of the Mexican War, Irish US soldiers took offers from Catholic Mexican commanders to join the Mexican army. In Illinois, the politically radical Republicans saw that slavery and Catholicism as the two great threats to the liberties of America. Bottom line the results were discrimination in hiring and street violence. As an aside, much was made of the fact in 1960, that John F. Kennedy, if elected would be the first Catholic president the US ever had. He was and it remains that Kennedy has been the only Catholic president in US history.
What changes are being made by Christian authorities and governments to deal with the tension between the Irish Catholics and Irish Protestants?
Nothing, that's why there's tension.
How did the conflict between Catholics and Protestants in Ireland affect the people living there?
It wasn't so much between Catholics and protestants as between Irish (who were mostly Catholic) and Englishmen (who were mostly protestant). The Irish objected to the English (and their descendants) living in their country and oppressing them, particularly as English law suppressed the Catholic faith, and the practice thereof. It made life particularly difficult for Irish Catholics for whom the practice of their faith was illegal. One of the unforeseen benefits was, that for the most part, the Catholic faith of the Irish was particularly strong, comparable to the oppressed Catholics in Poland. As the Catholics have gained ascendancy, they have started to lose their faith and become indistinguishable from other modern people.
Why where monastery made?
Was it made for the protestants or catholics?? Sappy
Why do some Irish Catholics become terrorist?
This has happened to very few Catholics and their terrorist actions were certainly not those of a Catholic. It happened because Catholics were made feel and were treated as second class citizens, compared to Protestants..AnswerThis has little if nothing to do with religion. The English came in and took over Ireland, subjecting them, for many years, to cruel oppression. It just so happens that the English were all protestant and the Irish were all Catholic. It has mainly been a fight by the Irish to reclaim their country. It has NOTHING to do with "Catholics" becoming "terrorists".

What did renaissance do?
The European Renaissance was a time where the churhc split into two major religions, the Roman Catholics and the Protestants. The Renaissance was a time where it made the people look at the Christian faith and notice its flaws. It made the people think about what the church was doing and it made them think about what powers the church was abusing.

What part did Mary play in England's break with the Catholic Church?
The English people did not like Queen Mary's persecution of Protestants. When she executed people who were not any threat to her throne, it made no sense to anyone. Her actions turned more people against Catholicism than her persecution made Catholics. When she died, few mourned.

Why the name change From Catholic to Roman Catholic?
The "name change" was only made by protestants in England who thought they could be Catholics without acknowledging the Pope in Rome, they are the ones who first started referring to Catholics as Roman Catholics so as to allow themselves to be "Anglo" Catholics. There was never any official name change.
