Did the Catholic Church plan to kill Henry VIII after they excommunicated him?

.Catholic AnswerGreat heavens, no! The Catholic Church is the Mystical Body of Christ. As such, it is here on earth to accomplish His Will, which is the salvation of everybody in the world throughout history. Excommunication is a very serious punishment which is reserved for very serious cases in order to bring people to their senses, so that they may be sorry for their sins, and turn back to God. The Church is not around to kill people, that would sort of be defeating the purpose of trying to save them, wouldn't it?

What religion did Henry viii start up?

King Henry VIII was a Protestant Christian- mainly because the Catholic church would not grant him a divorce he wanted from one of his wives. Henry was a Catholic and was a member of the oldest Catholic Church in Europe, the Church in England! As far as I know he didn't abandon the Church and indeed it was the proud boast of one of his Bishops, Bonner? that Henry accepted 8 Catholic Councils! Further more, Henry and the Catholics in England held to the old style catholicism of the first thousand years, where power was held from the apostles to the college of bishops through the Councils. It is a nonsense to say that Henry was a protestant, if anything he was a supporter of the position held by the Orthodox!
