Henry was head of the Church by reason of the fact that He was chief magistrate in this country! This applied to all monarchs at that time including the pope as head of state in Northern Italy! Mind you, the English Church allowed Henry's status as long as it was to be understood, Henry was Head,"As far as the law of Christ allows!"
