Henry VIII aided the entrance of protestant beliefs into England when he?

King Henry (VIII) wanted to divorce his first wife, Catherine of Aragon. He applied to the Pope in Rome. The Pope would not annul ther marriage. Basically, Henry said that no one outside England was going to tell him what to do in England, because he was King. So he broke away from the Roman Catholic Church (the Pope), and reformed the Roman Catholic Church that was in England, into the modern Anglican Communion. It is known as the 'Reformation'. NB When you see pictures of King Henry, and knowing his actions from history , he comes accross as a very Autocratic person.


Why was Henry excommunicated by the pope?

Henry got excommunicated because he wanted to divorce Catherine and marry Anne Boleyn. One of the reasons is that Henry needed an heir to the throne and had only one child, a daughter. Catherine was getting old and could not really have any more children. Whilst that was happening Henry had a affair with Anne and she was then pregnant. So Henry went to the pope since he was a Catholic, to get divorced. But the pope said no because they had consummated the marriage (had sex after being married). But Henry said that he thought that Arthur, Henry's brother had already consummated with her but they hadn't. So Henry went on and built his own church (the church of England.) He had made himself head allowing him to do whatever he wanted. So he divorced Catherine (the only reason he was with her was to be in alliance to be with Spain.) He then married Anne, and for that reason he was excommunicated. But that was bad because he then had another DAUGHTER!

What was the religion when Henry VIII became a king?

King Henry the Eighth was unsatisfied with the decisions the pope wouldn't let him make, therefore forming the belief of Anglicanism. He switched the rules of Catholicism to his liking so he could finally get the male heir he had been longing for. Henry did not form any religion, he was a Catholic and a member of the Church in England. What he did do, along with the English Church was to tell the pope that when he interfered in another bishop's see , the pope was breaking the rules and traditions of the Holy Catholic Church!

Why did Henry break with the pope?

Because they had an argument about who should be pope. Henry said it should be him but the pope said it should be him!Anglican Catholic Answer!The pope withdrew communion from Henry, Henry didn't break with the Bishop!The King sought to change wives! The Bishop of Rome denied him an annulment not for any high flown moral reason, but because one of the ladies nephews objected, very rightly, to her being treated that way! The King was angry and pointed out that the Pope wasn't the only person who could dispense annulments that way and besides, he had no authority to be dealing in another bishop's see this way. It was against the teachings of the highest authority in the Catholic Church, the seven ecumenical councils. It was the Pope's turn to be angry and he cut out Henry from his communion list!
