Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Dublin Review, Vol. 41 Liberty ill this country fell with the Papal Supremacy. It has been shown that the result of servility to royalty was the establishment of the Royal Supremacy. It is now to be shown that the Reformation was simply the result of royal tyranny. The establishment of the Royal Supremacy did not arise from any alteration of religion, either in the nation or the Church, nor even in the sovereign, Henry remained, in faith, a Catholic, until his death. The common idea is that the Reformation caused the separation from Rome, and that the establishment of tho Royal Supremacy arose from an alteration of religion. This is an entire error. The Royal Supremacy was established simply for purposes of policy. It was merely a means of riveting the yoke of tyranny. In the statutes establishing it no religious reasons are assigned for it. The reasons assigned were only reasons of expediency. The measure was consummated in 1534. And for years afterwards - until the accession of Henry´s heir - no change of religion took place. It was not even professed that the Royal Supremacy was established from a disbelief in the Divine sanction of the Papal Supremacy. This is most remarkable. The common idea is that the English Church and nation "shook off," as the phrase is, "the yoke of Rome," from a sincere conviction of its unscriptural and unchristian character, and they "errors of Romanism."
