Best Answer

Catholic

He was Protestant then changed to Catholic then converted back to Protestanism and then finally made this huge conversion to Catholicism so he could rule France!

It may be a little clearer this way...

Henry was a Huguenot as King of Navarre, but he had to renounce his Protestant faith and convert to Catholicism to become King of France. Henry became noted for an unusually high level of religious tolerance, but he was eventually assassinated by a fanatical Catholic.
