Philip II of Spain was considered anti-Protestant primarily due to his staunch defense of Catholicism and his efforts to suppress Protestantism across Europe. He viewed Protestant movements as threats to the unity of Christendom and the authority of the Catholic Church. His reign saw the implementation of the Inquisition and military actions, such as the Spanish Armada's attempt to invade England, which was partly motivated by the desire to re-establish Catholic dominance in Protestant territories. His policies and actions were driven by a belief in the divine right of kings and the necessity of maintaining religious uniformity.

Absolutely. BY LAW those in the Royal Family who are not Protestant - or marry a non-Protestant, are no longer allowed to have any claim in succession of the throne. While this is not specifically anti-semitism, it does technically mean the British Monarchy see Jewish people as inferior - along with others of any religion aside from Christianity. Also, we all know Prince Philip is a racist anyway, there's no doubting that.
King Philip II of Spain was a catholic, as was all Spain; Queen Elizabeth I was a protestant, as was most of England and to Philips' eyes they were heretics. Philip had the blessing of the pope for the invasion of England to spread catholicism.
King Philip II of Spain disliked Elizabeth I of England primarily due to her support for Protestantism and her backing of rebellious Protestant factions in the Spanish-controlled Netherlands. Additionally, Elizabeth's refusal to marry Philip, despite their previous engagement, and her role in the defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588 further fueled his animosity. This rivalry was rooted in the broader conflict between Catholicism and Protestantism during the Reformation, making Elizabeth a significant political and ideological opponent for Philip.

Philip II of Spain's anti-Protestant policies primarily resulted in increased persecution of Protestants, the strengthening of the Inquisition, and the unification of Catholic powers against Protestant states.
