The main reason the Protestant religion was formed was because people were tired of the Catholic church's overbearing laws. A group eventually protested and broke away from the church forming the Protestant church.

What is the difference between the Protestant Church and the Church of England?
From a Catholic point of view: there really isn't a difference between the members of the Church of England (Anglican or Episcopalian) or Protestants because all Churches who broke from Rome during the Reformation are considered Protestant since they "protested" the Roman Church. However, the Church of England considers themselves to be "quasi-Protestant" a somewhat cross section of both Protestantism and Catholicism since they still somewhat retained a few Catholic traditions and views, but are separate from the Roman Church. There are differences between Anglicans/Episcopalians and other Protestants, but the Anglicans are still considered Protestant by the Roman Catholic Church.
