Best Answer
Catholic AnswerElizabeth was brought up outside the Catholic Church in Henry VIII's newly formed Anglican Church. She was a strong supporter of the Anglican Church as the Catholic Church never recognized her mother as a wife of Henry and so she, Elizabeth, as illegitimate, could not legally sit on the throne of England.
