How did Catherine of aragon marriage end?
Catherine of Aragon, The Spanish Princess, married Prince Arthur the eldest son of Henry VII. However Arthur died shortly after and before the marriage was physically consummated.After a dispensation from the Pope she married Arthur's brother who later became Henry VIII. She bore him six children but only one survived, a Daughter who later became Mary I.Henry VIII was desperate for a male heir and asked the Pope to annul his marriage to Catherine to allow him to marry again.

Does lying about your age invalidates marriage license?
Yes. It's called fraud. If you look young, you might be asked for other ID to prove your age & that could cause problems. BUT..... if you are well past the age of, say, forty-something then probably nobody would question you if you shaved off a few years... ;-)
How can making Henry VIII head of church help him achieve his 'lustful' objectives?
A strange way of putting the question, "lustful"? Henry VIII wanted, above all things, to make sure that the throne of England stayed in his family. The best way of doing that was to have many sons to carry on after he was dead. His first wife, the widow of his brother, could not provide him with a child so he asked the pope to have the marriage annulled, as if they had never been married. The pope refused, so the only way out was to break away from the catholic church and make himself the head of his "new church", then he could annul his own marriage. After 5 more marriages he had one son, who died young, and two daughters, both of which became Queens of England, but after they died the throne passed to a distant relative, not a direct descendant of Henry.
What nation became protestant because its ruler wanted a divorce that the pope would not grant?
I think you are reffering to King Henry VIII of England wanting to annul (not divorce) his marriage to his first wife, Katharine of Aragon. The Roman Catholic Church would not allow him to do this, so he broke away from Romer and set up his own church in England which he declared himself the head of. Some speculate that he did this mainly because he wanted the English lands and monasteries that belonged to the Church in Rome to be his instead. This church that he made in England was not really Protestant to begin with as Henry VIII considered himself a Catholic -just not a Roman Catholic. However the Anglican Church took on more Protestant beliefs after Henry's reign, particularly during the reigns of Edward VI and Elizabeth I. Today the Anglican Church considers itself to be both Catholic and Reformed.

Does a cathloic have marry in a church?
There are two answers to this question: If you mean does a catholic have to marry in a physical church, the answer is no. As long as a Catholic priest is officiating the ceremony and there are two witnesses (besides the couple themselves) then a Catholic may wed somewhere besides a church. There is also another way this question is asked: some may say that they are getting married "in the Church" (notice the capital "C"), which is an expression of speech meaning that a Catholic is getting married according to the rites and rules of the Catholic religion. So if this question is being asked in that sense, then yes, a Catholic must marry "in the Church", otherwise the marriage is not considered morally valid.
What were the marriage laws in 17th century?
First the banns, or publication of the proposed marriage, must be posted three weeks prior to the intended marriage in the resident parrish. If the proposed bride and groom resided in different parrishes, the banns were posted in both parrishes. A certificate was required from one parrish priest to the other. This gave an opportunity for others to know and possibly object to the marriage. Then the marriage could take place. During the ceremony the priest asked if there were any know impediments to the marriage twice. Once the congregation was asked and then the couple was asked. If anyone came forward to give allegation they were charged to show cause by God's law or the law of the realm. During the ceremony the wife was charged to obey and the husband to cherish. Once all banns were removed the couple was joined by permission of the giver of the bride, and the holy ceremony of the church, and the law of the realm.
