Catholic AnswerFor the most part, they were more upset with the protestant "reformers" like Martin Luther and Henry VIII then they were with the Church. Luther and Henry were having personal problems dealing with their own sin - they had issues, and instead of confessing their sins and dealing with them, they blamed the Catholic Church In Martin Luther's case, the princes of northern Germany latched on to him and his ideas in order to separate their states from having to pay and be obedient to Rome. In Henry's case, he started his own Church to legitimatize his bastard child by marrying the woman he threw over his Queen for. In the first case the result was the "Lutheran Church", in the second case, the result was the "Anglican Church." In both cases, the people were very upset about losing their Churches, their priests, their sacraments, etc. In the first case, I would recommend The Facts About Luther by Msgr. Patrick F. O'Hare, LL.D., in the second case, I would recommend The Stripping of the Altars: Traditional Religion in England, 1400-1580, by Eamon Duffy.
