because the catholic church wouldn't let Henry VIII divorce Catherine of aragon so he left the church and made a new one
How did king henry effect the protestant church?
No Henry VIII didn't create the protestant church it was Martin Luther in 1517 Henry VIII only made it officialMArtin Luther actually set up the lutheren church though !
Henry would have had little time for Protestants. He was aware of a reformist movement in the English Catholic Church trying to introduce theoligical elements based on the new protestant doctrine. When Henry VIII came to the throne, he was a devout Catholic and defended the Church against them. Henry VIII did not agree with their views. In 1521, Pope Leo X honoured Henry VIII with the title "Defender of Faith', because of his support for the Roman Church. When the Pope refused to grant Henry VIII an annulment from Catherine of Aragon, Henry split the English Church from the Roman church. Rather than the pope, the king would be the spiritual head of the English church. Reformest elements in the English Church at that time gave him support.King Henry VIII declared himself supreme head of a new Church of England. (The Act of Supremacy). This marked the start of centuries or religious conflict in Britain. It is a common misconception, particularly amongst Americans, that Henry VIII became a "Protestant" and turned England overnight into a Protestant country.
Henry the vlll changed the church from Catholic to protestant.
The Protestant Church, however there are many sects of the Protestant church such as: Presbyterian, Baptist, and Methodist.
Henry VIII did a great job of preventing the Protestant Reformation from having any great affect on England - until he needed a divorce. When the Catholic Church refused to grant Henry VIII a divorce, he decided to make his own version of Christianity, where he made the rules. Henry VIII started the Anglican / Church of England, where Henry VIII was the head of the church (much like the Pope). Henry VIII gave himself permission to divorce and ordered all his subjects to become Protestant.
Anglican Catholic Answer!Henry didn't of course turn England protestant or turn protestant himself.What Henry did, for whatever reason, was to query the right of the papacy to interfere in another bishop's see! Pointing out that whoever did so contravened the Canons of Nicea and broke the basic rules of the Church!To adhere to the rules of the Ecumenical Councils is not to become protestant, to abandon the teaching of the Church is to become a heretic! Henry abandoned no rules or teaching!

He didn't make "the Protestant Church" he made a sect, or a branch of Christianity. He created the Anglican Church in 1534.
It was not Henry 5, but the 8th. He began the Reformation by closing the Catholic Church and taking their assets. The church he created was the Church of England.
