Why did Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon's divorce have a split in Catholics and protestants?
Because divorce is not permitted in the Church. King Henry VIII, not being satisfied with the daughter that his wife had given him, decided that he needed a new wife, so he sought an annulment (which is NOT a divorce, it is a decree that no valid marriage ever occurred). This was patently ridiculous as he had previously obtained papal permission to marry Catherine of Aragon in the first place, so, of course, it was denied. As Henry couldn't obtain an annulment, his brilliant solution was to leave the Church and found his own Church which would do whatever he wanted - and, bingo, you have the protestant revolt in England. It was not a "split" between Catholics and protestants, it was the King making Catholicism illegal and making up his own Church and requiring that everyone go to it-big difference.
