Interesting question, but totally off the wall. There is no way that the establishment of the Anglican Church every pleased any Catholic, moderate or otherwise, as the Anglican Church is just another protestant church dressed up in Catholic vestments.
Did Henry VIII break with the roman catholic church for any religious reasons?
No, he wanted a divorce from Catherine of Aragon so he could marry Anne Boleyn the Catholic church would not grant him one( this is against the ?Catholic doctrine) so being head of the church he unilaterally broke away from the Catholic church and established what is today known as the Anglican Church
What did henry VIII want when he made the church of england?
Henry the 8th simply wanted a divorce or annulment. He wished to marry Anne Boleyn. The catholic church (Vatican) did not see his marriage to Catherine of Aragon in the same way he did. Simply put, he decided that he was king...what he said was law... and he wanted to marry Anne. He decided not to let the Catholic Church have any say in what happened in his kingdom. He refused the Catholic church's authority, and it was this action that formed the Church Of England.
Why did the Anglicans lose influence in early America?
Scottish Presbyterians, French Huguenots, and members of the Methodist, Baptist, and Catholic Church began to come in the early 1700s.
Do Roman Catholics use The Book of Common Prayer?
Technically, they do not. The Book of Common Prayer has been traditionally used by members of the Anglican Communion, or the churches who are officially associated with the Archbishop of Canterbury in England. Since many Anglican dioceses have recently left communion with Canterbury, affiliated with the Roman Pontiff, and joined the Catholic Church, the Anglican liturgy has been adapted for use in the new Catholic dioceses.
The traditional form of prayer for Catholics is the Roman office, which is comprised of several books for each liturgical season. Another form of this office is available, and it is considerably shorter and takes up only one volume.
Why did Kings quarrel with Popes over the Church officials?
There were two issues that caused problems between kings and popes. One was that the kings wanted to have bishops who would support them, and so wanted to install their own bishops when openings came up within their territories. The popes' point of view on this was that the Church should appoint its own bishops, without having to get any sort of permission from the kings.
The other problem was that there were two, parallel, court systems in place, one for the state, and the other for the Church. The Church reserved the right to try its own clergy when they were accused of crimes, even though the crimes were breaking secular laws, so when a priest was accused of stealing a horse, he would be tried by clergy, instead of being tried by an ordinary jury. Since it was hard to figure out who was clergy and who was not, this gradually became a situation in which, for legal purposes, if you could read, you were clergy. The students in universities and other schools, troubadours who happened to be literate, and anyone else who could read, went to a special court where torture was not permitted, and punishments were intended to save a person's soul rather then get revenge, so they were lenient. The kings did not like this one bit.
There were other issues as well, including such problems as the fact that churches and monasteries did not pay taxes. But they were not quite as important at the time.

Is it normal to think about suicide?
== == It depends what "think about" means. Are you thinking about doing it, or are you thinking about the topic of suicide for a school report? ... or what?
My guess is, if you are asking the question, you might have your question better answered by a professional counselor. Of you don't know one to speak to, then any medical clinic can advise you and direct you to speak to the right person.
If it's critical, any hospital emergency room would help too.
All information is held in the strictest confidence.
== == == ==
Generally no, it isn't normal to think about suicide. But if you are thinking about commiting suicide, don't do it. Think of all the good times in your life. Next think about how your parents would feel. And then consider your friends and family members. Wouldn't you like to watch your little sister grow up and say she wants to be like you. If you think about suicide, think about the good things in life and forget about suicide. == == == == yes it is perfectly normal
everyone wonders what it would be like if they didnt exist at some point in their life
what it will be like to die and not exist
especially when you are going through really hard and upsetting times and or have depression
if you feel like this or someone you know feels like this
talking to someone helps a lot
getting all your issues, worries problems and thoughts out
having someone elses opinion on them and on life and on what you can do
when your serotonin drops,
which is what happens when people get depressed,
suicidal thoughts are common
depression can be treated with medication, its easy to treat when you find the medicine that works for you,
this is a physical problem too and NOT simply just a mental or emotional problem,
the persons serotonin has been reduced and it needs medication to help them feel better by increasing the serotonin back in the brain.
so dont assume that you can somehow coax them into feeling better or doing anything, this is not something you can do and its not something they can control or 'fix'
if there are problems in your life that you cant deal with at the moment again talking to someone, ask for their help, having other peoples perspective and knowledge will always benefit you
times get tough in life, its not going to be easy when you have serious problems going on, but we all go through them
ive had my fair share, including depression and suicidal thoughts which tend to make every problem you have feel one hundred times worse
sometimes these the problems you are going through wont get better and you have to just go through them, its tough, but you can do it, we all do, we all have to
the most important thing to do is to get some help, ask for help, tell someone how you feel and tell someone else if they cant help
you need help with this, it wont get better on its own and you wont feel better by yourself
Additional Response Yes. It is normal to think of suicide, but as mentioned above, when thoughts become obsessive, seek help. When one is depressed and suicidal, thoughts may not be accurate or realistic about those around them. Love could be pouring over the person like thick syrup, but if one is thinking of suicide, he/she may not see himself/herself as lovable and may view himself/herself only as a burden and disappointment to those they love and who love him/her (when the opposite is actually the reality). Seek help immediately. Individuals such as those mentioned here should not be blamed or deemed "selfish" because their perceptions are distorted. Imagine the pain and suffering of someone who genuinely feels they only bring pain, suffering, and disappointment to the world and those they love. Unfortunately, they are unaware that the opposite may actually be more of a reality. Many of these individuals are loved infinitely and beyond description and are missed more than words can describe. Please remember; however, that if someone takes their own life while you live with it, you most definitely did all you could do. It is a different frame of mind, thinking. No matter what your efforts, you most likely could not prove your love; you probably could not save them. Do not blame yourself. If you are depressed and thinking of suicide, please take heed to these words, your life is valuable whether you believe it or not, and most certainly you are loved and needed more than you realize!

How did puritans view the Anglican Church of England?
With some disgust. They were protestants who sought to bring in to the Church all kinds of new beliefs and to do away with the ancient liturgies and beliefs. The church wanted to purify the dirty dirty jews.
Who started each branch of Christianity in Protestantism?
Because "Protestant" refers to anything that is not Catholic, there are many braches of Protestantism, many of which I wouldn't consider Christian in nature. Each branch is often named for the person who founded it: the Lutheran church was founded by Martin Luther, the Calvinist church was founded by John Calvin, and so on. If you are looking for a specific denomination, it might be good to look that one up online specifically.
