Both were catholics but Mary held to a more modern brand of Catholicism. She held that the authority within the Catholic CHurch was held by the Bishop of Rome and this was by Divine Right, or God's Will!
This was a recent development and had led to an absorption within the Holy Roman Church of recently added ideas and claims and a total refusal to contemplate S.Paul's Injunction, "Keep the Deposit!"
Interestingly, King Henry, Eliza's father and the Church in England had been one of the opponents of this idea, though the arguments had rattled on for 1500 years!
What the Eastern Church and the Anglican Catholics held to was the idea of Christ Revelation, being passed on by the apostolic college to the bishops in their Councils, Seven Ecumenical Councils, which is the teaching of the first thousand years before the separation of east and west!

Mary Queen of Scots was Elizabeth I's cousin.
It is the other way around. Mary queen of Scott was forceed into prison by queen elizabeth, her cousin, for 16 years until queen elizabeth exicuted Mary by beheading her.
Queen Mary of England. That's why we have the drink "bloody Mary".
Queen Elizabeth the first ordered the execution of Mary Queen of Scots. Mary was a Catholic and Elizabeth was protestant. Mary was a threat to Elizabeth for that reason and also because she was too close to the throne. (this answer can be massively expanded on)

Early in the year Queen Mary thought she was pregnant, no child was born and she accept Elizabeth as heir. Later in the year Queen Mary died and Queen Elizabeth acended to the throne.
Queen Elizabeth was older than Mary Queen of Scots who was the daughter of her cousin. Elizabeth was born 1533 and Mary 1542. Elizabeth also had a half-sister Mary (Bloody Mary).
No. Mary I was the half-sister of Elizabeth I. In the case of Elizabeth II, her grandmother was Queen Mary, the consort of George V.
Queen Elizabeth II's paternal grandmother was Queen Mary (Mary of Teck).
they have the same names? They were cousins? However it was Queen Elizabeth who was the virgin!
Elizabeth.
Mary Queen of Scots was Elizabeth I's cousin.
It is the other way around. Mary queen of Scott was forceed into prison by queen elizabeth, her cousin, for 16 years until queen elizabeth exicuted Mary by beheading her.
Queen Elizabeth I was arrested by her sister Queen Mary because a group of Protestants attempted to murder Queen Mary because she was prosecuting anyone who wasn't Catholic. Queen Mary just assumed that Elizabeth was the leader of the attack because she was Protestant and if Queen Mary died then Elizabeth would become queen.
Queen Mary of England. That's why we have the drink "bloody Mary".
You are confused. Mary I of Scotland (Mary Queen of Scots) was the daughter of Elizabeth's cousin. Elizabeth's half-sister was Mary I of England (Bloody Mary). She obviously did not kill her as Elizabeth had a long and fruitful reign after Mary's death.
