Best Answer

Catholics may have viewed Macbeth more negatively due to the character's regicidal actions and descent into madness, reflecting a distrust of political power and the consequences of sin. Protestants, on the other hand, may have seen Macbeth as a cautionary tale about the dangers of ambition and the importance of adhering to moral principles in a secular society.

How is Mary the Mother of Jesus viewed within the Catholic Church and the Protestant church?

The Blessed Virgin Mary, Our Lady, is viewed by Christians as the Mother of God and the Mother of the Church. As she gave birth to God, Himself, and Her womb remains every fruitful in that as we are baptized, we become her children as well. She is our mother, and she remains the Medatrix of All Grace.As for Protestants, there truly is no way to answer such a question as they are all over the map on this question. There is no "Protestant church", in truth there can be no such thing as to have a church, you must have a valid priesthood, and although the Eastern Orthodox, the Polish National Catholics, and the Old Catholics all maintain a valid priesthood, and thus can be considered churches, the Protestants do not even pretend (other than Episcopalians and Anglicans) to have a priesthood.

What are the different views between Queen Mary and the non-cathlioc?

Queen Mary of England was a staunch Catholic who sought to restore Catholicism in England and eliminate Protestant influence. Non-Catholics, including Protestants and Anglicans, opposed her reign due to her persecution of religious dissenters and the executions of those who refused to conform to Catholicism. They viewed her as a tyrant infringing on their religious freedoms.


What do protestant believe in?

The principal Protestant Churches have many similar beliefs to the Roman Catholic Church. Protestantism really began as a movement to reform Christianity, not to break away and create new beliefs. For example, Martin Luther, a Catholic priest and professor of theology, at first only wished to reform the practice of selling indulgences, a practice that he believed was corrupting the Church. After his excommunication, he formed the church which became known as the Lutheran Church, beginning the Protestant Movement. Protestants believe in the Holy Trinity, and in life hereafter. Protestants do not believe in praying to saints, the use of indulgences or the existence of purgatory. They believe that absolution of sins can be obtained by prayer alone. Catholics believe that grave (mortal) sins need to be confessed to a priest, and like Protestants, they believe that minor, venial sins may be confessed directly through prayer. Protestants believe in salvation by faith alone (Sola fide) rather than by faith plus its resulting good works of charity. They believe that the sacrifice of Christ was sufficient for salvation. Protestants follow essentially the same Bible as Catholics minus the Deuterocanonicals/Apocrypha. Jesus and the Apostles used the Old Testament with the seven books in question included. Years after the crucifiction, Jewish leaders, wanting to distance themselves from the emerging Christians, removed seven books. They kept the books written in Hebrew, and discarded the ones written in Greek. Today's Protestants use the shorter Jewish version of the OT. Catholics use the longer OT that was in use at the time of Christ. The ideas of praying for the dead, and of a place of purging before ultimate entry into heaven are contained within these books. The longer version was used by all Christians until the time of the Reformation. Protestants believe that Scripture alone is all that is necessary for spiritual guidance (Sola scriptura). Catholics believe that the use of Scripture plus Tradition ( ideas and practices passed down from the time of the Apostles and the founding fathers) is needed. Protestants and Catholics observe the same major feasts. Catholics observe seven sacraments and Protestants only observe the sacraments of baptism and communion. Protestants believe that communion is to be viewed as "symbol" only. Catholics believe that the bread and wine, during the Consecration at the Mass become the body and blood of Christ, as in the Last Supper. Protestants and Catholics have more in common than not. There are thousands of different Protestant denominations, each with slightly different beliefs and practices. All Catholics, whether of the Latin (western), Eastern, or other "Rite", share a common set of beliefs. Arguably Mormons, Seventh Day Adventists and some other Christian groups are also Protestant, however there a greater differences to which the above does not apply.

What colonies did Catholics and Puritans established?

The colony of Maryland was initially established as the only colony that tolerated Catholics, this did not last very long. All of the colonies in what became the United States were established by rabid protestants and puritans who left England because they hated and fear the "Roman" influence on the protestant Church of England, and fled to American to escape Roman influence. It is a sad nation that is founded on such intolerance, and yet viewed itself as being tolerant of any belief - if you don't mention Catholics. This hatred grew so bad in the 19th century as to form several major political parties.
