King Henry the Eighth was unsatisfied with the decisions the pope wouldn't let him make, therefore forming the belief of Anglicanism. He switched the rules of Catholicism to his liking so he could finally get the male heir he had been longing for.
Henry did not form any religion, he was a Catholic and a member of the Church in England. What he did do, along with the English Church was to tell the pope that when he interfered in another bishop's see , the pope was breaking the rules and traditions of the Holy Catholic Church!
