Queen Elizabeth took power away from the Roman Catholic Church and created a tolerable religious community for the most part. She was Protestant Christian but enacted the Act of Supremacy, and Act of Uniformity. This was done in order to clear the name of England for its infamous policy of religious intolerance left to her by her half sister Bloody Mary. Unfortunately, this did not stop her from wanting to persecute the once ruling Catholics. Especially in Ireland, which was under English control. Cromwell was the harshest of Queen Elizabeth's followers, who supposedly made a game of the Catholic rebellion by challenging his soldiers to see how many babies heads they could spear.

∙ 13y agoIf you are talking about Elizabeth I of England, then she didn't think much of either one except insofar as they would support her - and she laid all of her money and her Crown on the protestant established Church of England. If you are talking about Elizabeth II, then she is a politician and thinks only of the good of her country.
