Henry did not turn or change the Catholic Church into protestant churches! In the world of the 16th,Cent, to be a protestant was to be a Lutheran! What happened was that the Church in England applied itself to a stricter application of Catholic Dogma, than the Continental Churches! They got rid of recent additions to the Deposit of Faith and medieval intrusions! They did however remain Catholic!
Roman Catholic AnswerIn one way or another everyone was affected. The monks and nuns were turned out of their monasteries and all the land confiscated. Any bishops, priests, or lay folk who remained loyal to the Catholic Church lost their money, their lands, and eventually their lives. There were many bold martyrs from this era, especially under Henry VIII, and his daughter, Elizabeth I who, herself, was not particularly religious one way or another but viewed Catholicism as treason, and punished it accordingly. English priests, at the time, were educated in Belgium, in the seminary of Louvain (which still exists), only to return to England to be martyred when caught. It was a very, very sad time for the Church, and to this day all of the Catholic churches are still owned by the Protestants.Wiki User
