Anglican Catholic Answer?

Elizabeth was a Catholic, not a Roman one but an Anglican! She wanted to take her religion back to the state it was in in the latter years of her father and before the Calvinist excesses of her brother Edward.This couldn't be done because of the strength of the protestant party and the support it got from the nobility and gentry who were feared of losing the Monastic and church lands they'd gained! But the queen did what she could to protect her Church, refusing to allow the protestants too much lee way in their attacks on the Anglican Catholics. She told them that religion was not for the likes of them, but was for the Church and Bishops to decide.She abolished the monstrosity of the 2nd, prayer book and made token gestures in the 1559 book. It is thought that she preferred the First Prayer Book, which was the Sarum Mass, translated in to the vernacular! She was helped on her way by the murderous attempts on her life fostered by the papacy! IN parliament [1559] and in Convocation [1572] she allowed the Anglican catholics to affirm the Church's beliefs in the Seven Ecumenical Councils and Holy Tradition, thus placing the Church on the front line of the Catholic Belief of the First Thousand years!
