What were the Catholics beliefs about King Henry VIII leaving the Catholic Church?
The Catholics who were the vast portion of the English, were devastated at having their religion overthrown. The Church's belief was that both Henry, and his son, Edward, and his daughter, Elizabeth, were all heretics who had condemned themselves to eternal damnation and weren't doing the English people any good either. Not only did they deny the sacraments and the faith to their subjects, but to generations of English who were raised outside the faith. For a complete, scholarly study of what Catholics believed about Henry and his terrible sins, please read The Stripping of the Altars by Eamon Duffy.

Did Catholics support McCarthyism?
Roman Catholic AnswerI am sure that there are Catholics who do as well as Catholics who do not; I am positive that the Catholic Church does not approve of McCarthyism. The Catholic Church is the Mystical Body of Christ and is here to preach the Gospel and administer the Sacraments. The only time that the Church would preach politics from the Church would be when some political movement - such as the current President's health care package in 2012 in the United States - threatened the Church's ability to live out its beliefs.
Who began the Catholic church?
Catholics believe that Jesus Christ founded the Catholic Church.
Why does the Catholic Church discriminate against people who are non-Catholic?
The Catholic Church does not discriminate against non-Catholics. However, there is still much intolerance of Catholics by non-Catholics throughout the world as evidenced by this question. I have been a Catholic all my 67 years and have never heard a single word from a member of the Catholic clergy against non-Catholics. Catholics are secure in their faith and feel no need to criticize others who are not secure in their own beliefs. However, today, alone, I have read at least 20 new questions in this category that all have an anti-Catholic tone.
Are Catholics mormans?
No. Catholics have been baptized as members of the Roman Catholic Church. Mormons have been baptized as members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. While they might have some similar beliefs, they are not the same thing.
Are Assyrians Eastern Catholics?
The Assyrian Church of the East is not in full communion with the Holy See and the Catholic Church, so the Assyrian Church of the East is not Catholic at all to begin with. However, some parishes that were once under the Assyrian Church of the East have since come into communion with the Chaldean Catholic Church and some of these Chaldean Catholic parishes kept Assyrian in their name, but they are still Chaldean Catholics. Chaldean Catholics are of the Chaldean Rite, which is an Eastern Rite in the Catholic Church, so they, Chaldean Catholics, are also Eastern Catholics. The only Assyrian Catholics are those Catholics that are of the Assyrian ethnic group.
Is the Catholic Church Masonic?
No, the Catholic Church is not Masonic. In fact, Catholics are not suppose to become Masons.
Catholic versus Christian?
There is no difference as the Catholic Church is the original Christian Church tracing its history back to Christ and the Apostles. However, some Protestant denominations have taken the original Catholic beliefs and picked from them only the parts that they felt coincided with their views and discarded those that contradicted their beliefs.
