The PAINFUL Death Of Queen 'Bloody' Mary I Of England
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- During the reign of Queen Mary I, hundreds of Protestants were burned at the stake in terrifying and brutal scenes across England. She sought to punish prominent heretics to ensure that the public conformed to her restoration of the Catholic faith, after her father Henry VIII and brother Edward VI had began the English Reformation. Because of this, she gained the nickname 'Bloody Mary,' but during her life the Queen who reigned for just 5 years suffered a great deal with her health and wellbeing.
Mary I throughout her life suffered with various illnesses. She as a teenager caught the deadly disease smallpox, and did recover but throughout her life she was plagued with stomach issues that are attributed to 'ovarian dropsy.' This condition was linked to swellings in her stomach and Mary experienced a false pregnancy which has been linked to her poor health too. Mary I also suffered with fevers and other aspects of poor health that prevented her doing things in her life. She also was noted to have suffered with melancholy and depression, but Mary I is considered to have been a brutal ruler for the short time that she was on the throne.
Have these illnesses anything to do with the way she treated people and particular protestants in England? When Mary's pregnancy came to nothing, she believed she was punished by God for heretics living in England, and this could be a possible reason why the persecution continued. However today Mary I is considered to have been bloody, but she was a rather sickly and ill Tudor monarch.

The poor woman had endometriosis and ovarian cysts. It explains her pain, difficult periods and inability to actually get pregnant. It also explains the localized edema. My God, she probably died of ovarian or endometrial cancer.......or both. It doesn't excuse her behavior as a Queen, but wow, what a painful and horrific life and death. I can't imagine. Chronic pain can be really awful and change the person you are from who you want to be. Just saying.
Did they have opieds back then?
@@lilacsunshine3044 Opium ( the plant itself) has already been used for along time even before the Tudor times as a pain reliever, if I'm correct . But just not in a form we use today. Back then they mix opium with loads of thing, most popular was Theriac. Opiates ( or Opiodid I don't know the difference) was found in 1803, in a form of morphine. ( I search this in the Internet, so I don't know if its relevant or not.) Long story short, yes they did use opium, just in a different form and mix of substance.
If Queen Mary was in constant pain from her illness, it definitely could have influenced her short temper and lack of patience for those who disagreed with her, just like her father. In fact, in King Henry's later years, everyone pretty much knew he was dying and didn't have much longer to live by the time he married his 5th and 6th wife but nobody dared to say it, even his doctors, if they wanted to keep their head.
Karma is a bitch.
I dare say being burnt at the stake hurts quite a bit.
🤔🤔🤔
It just hit me. SHE LOOKS LIKE GRETA THUNBERG IN ABOUT 25 YEARS.
Omg she really does
Actually Thunberg will not have to wait only a year or two.
I hope Gretas death will be much worse.
@@brucevaughn2886 How many years will she have to wait then?
She does!
Religion, inbreeding and power - what a combination.
@TheFortress I've seen many portraits of Queen Mary, but until watching your video today I never noticed her deep dimples or the fact that her forehead was rather bulging and misshapen. I think there was a lot more at play with her poor health than we can even imagine. Fantastic video. Can't thank you enough for continuing my history education (at 53!) with such fascinating content. Cheers from PA USA
So much inbreeding went on back then. Nobody was very healthy because of it. Kind of weird irony- the idea to keep the royal blood pure is the very thing that polluted the royal blood so bad people died young. The Ptolemy- marriages with brothers sisters uncles and even a grandmother married her grandson. The English and the Egyptians did it up right proper with that inbreeding. Smh what we know now……
She had the dreaded Hapsburg blood in her. Her mother was Catherine of Aragon, who was the aunt of the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V, whose portraits reveal the infamous and very extended "Hapsburg chin".
@@israelizzyyarrashamiaak766 Henry the eighth and Catherine of Aragon were only distantly related so there was not the consanguinity that you saw later in British monarchs it wasn’t happening during this time. Unfortunately by suggesting that her facial features suggest some sort of handicap or mental problems or what have you just adds more on to this woman that is undeserved. And it’s not based in fact. So don’t do it.
m
We often forget that she was a Descendant of the Spanish monarchy which were overtly inbred and riddled with both severe mental and physical deformities I honestly believe like you that there was other issues at play with regards to Mary’s health
Them are the same symptoms exactly my grandmother had it turned out she had cancer. Back in Mary's day's they didn't know what cancer was. I don't know if there's enough left of Mary's cadaver to find out.
Why would it matter? Who’s still hoping to excuse her actions?
@@rangerjones5531 Illness ≠ excuse
Doctors weren't really much use in those days, I imagine. You either pulled through or you didn't. But I think that she probably died of cancer I don't think that she was much of a loss
True on all counts. I enjoy reading about medical history and with few exceptions, medicine at this point was often more dangerous than the disease itself. Of course there were some innovative treatments such as that for a kidney stone obstructing the bladder. The patient was strapped to a device holding him tightly while a hole was made in the bladder through an incision is the anus. I think 9 out of 10 died and 10 out of 10 wish they had. Even as late as the 1850s and 60s anesthetics were not generally used during childbirth as "God had intended women to suffer bringing forth a child." It wasn't until HRH Queen Victoria said "F*ck this sh*t, gimme the gas") [Citation needed] that women finally were able to get anesthetics.
On the political side, I don't think Mary ever really did anything positive enough to be associated with her name. Heck, even the "Bloody Mary" was invented by somebody else! Go figure! It does seem all royalty did in those days was about maintaining their reign with an heir. That certainly isn't 100% true, but when you get semi-humans like Charles II of Spain who was so riddled with the results of hundreds of years of inbreeding (look up Hapsburg Jaw) that he couldn't speak intelligibly, ate with difficulty, and was the definition of an imbecile.
Some dislike the idea of a monarchy, but there are a number of them that love and are loved by their countrymen. There are about 2 dozen monarchies (mostly constitutional) in the world today, and the ones most popular with their subjects are mostly PR figures. They provide a figurehead for people to celebrate patriotically and generally burning at the stake is considered off the plate. All in all, they are viewed as something like the national football club. Cheer if you like football, or don't if you're like me and find it boring. It's just a way for people to share national pride.
@@Akula114 So well said.
@@Akula114 "citation needed" Haha.
@@Akula114 It is your opinion that God intented childbirth to be painful. I disagree. Everything God made he said it was good. Trouble started when man rebelled and this brought all kinds of sorrows. Perhaps God was just stating a fact of the consequent of rebelling.
Difinately mediacal, I think a atopic pregnancy may have taken her life, but she had TB also.
I believe that her mother died of breast cancer and she died of ovarian cancer, possibly suffering from endometriosis and developing endometrial cancer eventually, as the tissue can grow throughout the abdomen and attack surrounding organs thus increasing chances of cancer. Upon autopsy, Her mother’s heart was said to be cancerous having a black tumor attached to it, which makes me think of hereditary BRCA breast/ovarian cancer.
Yikes!😱
They did autopsy back then🤔
First I heard it.
Yes, probably. We have the BRCA gene in our family. Breast cancer on both sides of the family and my first cousin (24) and myself (38) had Ovarian cancer at the same time. I had a Radical hysterectomy, and bilateral oophrectomy etc. Not available for poor Mary
Thanks TF - appreciate your hard work in putting these posts together!!😊✅❤️
She was as crazy and mean as her father
No she wasn't, if you really want learn about Mary, look up her true story. Not something that protestant created by bashing her for being catholic.
King Henry VIII executed up to 70,000 during his reign, Mary executed 284 Protestants, according to Wikipedia and "Foxe's Book of Martyrs." Remember, that King Henry VIII received the Title, "Defender of the Faith," from Pope Leo X, when he wrote the book, "Defence of the Seven Sacraments," against Martin Luther, when King Henry was a Fake Catholic. Then in order to get an Annulment from Queen Catherine of Aragon after being married to her for 24 years, he becomes a Fake Protestant and starts a new Protestant denomination, Anglicans, with Thomas Cramner becoming the Archbishop of Canterbury. From my Protestant perspective, nobody was as crazy, hypocritical/FAKE, or as mean as King Henry VIII. What a Mess that guy was! I have some sympathy for Queen Mary as the narrator has.
@@BiG-JuPO1O1 You want unbiased?

Omg that person having skull surgery back in the day. That must have been it's own torture
@Gary Allen I hadn't thought about it that way. Your right. I'm very happy that I live in a time where medical science has brought us safe, and successful anesthesia of all different types.
My aunt had eye surgery when she was a young girl in the 1950's without anesthesia while she was awake. I can't imagine the agony and trauma....
just as bad as it would have been; im sure it was much worse in roman times lol
@@dk2614 I had to have a deep cut to my shin back in 1979 and the last three or four stitched hurt terribly because the cut hadn't been properly anesthetized. Both the cut being anesthetized and the last stitches were incredibly painful.
😰😰😰😰😰. Henry VIII destroyed monasteries, churches, confiscated their properties, massacred his own people. But you'll never hear that from 'academics'.
no you wont. but you will hear how bad of a king he was and how outrageously fat he actually was. so yeah.
It is well known how awful he was when breaking away from the Catholic church and replacing it with the Church of England. He was of his time but he was a fairly poor king. His greatest achievement was fathering Elizabeth...a truly great monarch
@@paulinemaclellan8204 Henry wasn't brought up to be a King, He only got the throne as his older brother died.
Of course we’ve all heard that about Henry 8. Where have u been? Common knowledge
King Henry VII was basically a serial killer with a crown.
Great videos. I love the Tudor dynasty videos. Thanks!!
That portrait of Mary, looks like Dennis Waterman in drag.
Hahaha I like your thinking!
@@leemichael2154 would it be out of the question for royalty to throw a drag queen as a queen? i wouldn't say it was out of the question. could have been a ruse until someone better was put in charge. kept the secret close. was probably talked about between the commonfolk but was punishable by death if anyone caught you talking about her looking like a man.
@@ChickenMcThiccken hey if they do a better job than the royals I would accept that, although a sock puppet couldn't do any worse!
😝
Lol! That's true! I also found a couple of them reminding me of Nicola Sturgeon, tyrant of Scotland!!!
The return to Catholicism was generally popular in the country (the total number of burnings was less than 300). What was not popular was the 'stripped down' Protestantism of Edward VI's reign during which time churches lost their stained glass, their wall paintings, their roodscreens (which were a source of considerable local pride) and many of their furnishings. Rather remarkably, some of these items 'reappeared' when Mary came to the throne and reversed religious policy.
The dislike, going on fear of Catholicism arose during the reign of Elizabeth, partly as a consequence of the widespread popularity of 'Foxes Book of Martyrs', but also because the Pope had declared Elizabeth to be a heretic, and encouraged Catholic European Monarchs to invade England and restore a Catholic monarchy.
Edward was a spoiled and unstable boy who once, for fun, pulled a live bird apart. He also had a virulent hatred of Catholics. I am convinced that, had he lived to adulthood, he would have massacred hosts of Catholics. As it was, he terrorized his own half-sister Mary even though she raised him and loved him as a mother would, simply because she was Catholic.
@@nassauguy48 Can you give a source for what you say about his hatred of Catholics? I'm not disagreeing or saying you're wrong, but with Edward it's a matter of who had influence over him at any particular time.
@@nassauguy48 given what we saw in his brief reign, had he lived Edward VI would have been one of the worst kings of England ever, on par with Charles I. He was a religious zealot and stubborn beyond belief.
@Jim Thorne
Tutors 🤷♂️
I’ve this video several times. Thanks.
Poor Mary. Now her depression could be treated and many of her diseases have been eradicated. But all Henry, a mass murderer himself, cared about her value for sale in marriage.
That was how royalty worked. Marriages were political alliances.
This individual got what she had coming to her.She burnt 300 men, women, and youngsters alive at the stake in the name of organised religion. Shame on her.!!
Killing one person or a thousand makes one a vile, vicious murderer.
Queen is just a word for a ruler.
I very much believe in karma as a Hindu and the winds of karma are eternal and always return to payback both the good and bad twofold.
Fanatics and megalomaniacs should never be in the seat of power.
Elizabeth killed over 4,000 Catholics during her reign, nearly half of whom were innocent Irish women and children. One of the favorite methods of execution during her rule was slow and gradual disembowelment.
Tony Blair lied; 1 million died. That’s the way it is folks!
All the rulers did that. They were all psychopaths.
@@jennyrose9454 Still are. Iraq invasion had to be agreed by her maj.
She was treated horribly by her father and in turn totally outdid his horrible behavior.
What a mistake it was to have put Mary on the throne, plus marry her to a Spanard. What was government thinking !!!
She also wore lead white paint on her face.
That sure didn't help.
@@Monkey114The white make-up, called ceruse, was a mixture of white lead and vinegar. We now know that lead is poisonous and women in Tudor times often contracted lead poisoning, rarely living past the age of 50. It is thought that Elizabeth I had lead poisoning in later life which had contributed to her death
Mary died in November 1558, the last time Philip was in England was July 1557 so i dont know who visited her on her death bed but it certainly want him!
Phillip was probably getting busy with is sister 🤣
I think I read it was Elizabeth 1st was with her ❤
Good point thanking you well spoted
What a bloody mess!😱
That is not true! Mary legally and smartly tied her husband's hands when it came to his political and legal rights. He would not have been in charge if she died of child birth. Henry and Elizabeth each in their own reigns had many, many more people exicuted then Mary ever did. Philip did not visit her on her death bed, the creep abandoned her. Mary started everything that Elizabeth built upon. She made it possible for Elizabeth to so seemlessley begin her rule and forever banished her Father's ideas that a woman could not rule England. She even started the "mother of this nation" bit. People need to put some respect on that poor woman's name. She had it ROUGH with Henry as a father. Elizabeth lucked out that he died before her could ruin her emotionally like he did with every other "important" women who were unfortunate enough to be saddled with the creep.
Not buying it, Granted her dad was terrible to her and I see her as an abusive victim.But I wont excuse her for the torture and misery she put on England,
@@lilacsunshine3044 Not excusing what Queen Mary I did to her own people but I can understand why she turned out the way she did. Its unfortunate when monarchs are victims of abuse or abandonment by their own parents since they often end up taking it out on their own people.
I hope that’s not supposed to excuse torturing and killing people over their religious beliefs.
No, Elizabeth did not. Elizabeth did not "luck out", are you kidding? She wasn't that young when Henry died, and he had her mother executed. Mary knew her mother and didn't lose her to execution.
Many women wanted Henry when he was young. His health and brain injuries greatly warped him in older age. It wasn't that he thought women were incapable. It was tradition for a male to reign and carry on the family dynasty. The Tudor dynasty did end by not having a male heir. It wasn't a long dynasty, and Henry did not want to be the one to fail in continuing the dynasty.
She had a low kill rate even today. She got a bad rap because the new religion took over and demonized the old. It’s an old trick that has been followed all thru history and still today.
How about a no kill rate? That would have been better,
True
@@lilacsunshine3044 not in Tudor times.. people are plotting to kill u if u are a monarch and u can't trust people.
If she was a man burning people at the stake you'd have something different to say, do better 🤔🙄
Well, maybe, but burning people alive, and not even for crimes, just having a slightly different version of your religion, certainly gives your enemies a lot to defame you with.
Pleasing and doing the pope's bidding was more important to her than the welfare of her country and people. Not much has changed in human nature.
Henry VIII was worse.
@@captain007x far more callous and ruthless than Mary.
Elizabeth 1st was worse
Sucking up to Rome is dealing with the Devil.
@@carolynmitchell5981 Henry VIII did not have an issue with the Catholic Church, but with the Pope's authority. He wanted a divorce, that was his schisms. Mary was pulled into the kings great matter, she didn't willingly become the Bloody Mary the protestants have dubbed her. Essentially, the Anglican Church os the British Catholic Church, all to assert power, not a different religious canon.

I am really enjoying these videos ty
Listening to the painful demise of monarchs somehow eases the pain as I recover from sickness.
Its like I Think they completely and utterly missed the entire point of what Jesus was teaching.
@Scorpions Castle Sad to say that most religions have.
The Jesus who carried out an anti Semitic attack on a Hebrew temple?
@@dundeemink3847 JESUS witnessed the tax collectors charging impoverished people who were forced to pay ‘admittance fees’ in order to enter the temple to pray. As you know, that was and is still outrageous. The wealthy paid the fees by ‘donating’ what they had of value such as money, land, livestock, or jewelry. This was the practice of unscrupulous and corrupt Jewish accountants or tax collectors. Poor people had nothing to pay with to enter into the temple, the house of prayer and were turned away. This was outrageous and Jesus flipped their tables when he saw what was preventing the poor from worshipping. Remember in his sermon on the mountain where thousands gathered to hear his words, ‘Blessed are the poor in spirit for they shall see God’ ? God was and is and will forever be accessible by/for each one of us, poor and wealthy of every race and color world without end. The story of the poor widow’s lost coin and her frantic search for it exemplifies this lesson too. It was all she owned, and without it she wouldn’t be able to buy food, or pay the ‘fee’ to go into the temple to worship and pray. ‘My fathers house will not become a den for thrives!’ he said emphatically.
Indeed.
Just like today these Christian nationalists who follow Trump, they use religion for their own purposes
Not really surprised she was so evil given the awful & painful life she had. Religion, the root of all evil. Good video, thank you 👍🏻👍🏻
so in human thinking. "well. the world treated me like shit. so im gonna treat everyone like shit now"? that is incorrect. the "world" is more than man. so to take revenge out on a human who had nothing to do with your upbringing. is not a good idea.
Definitely Dennis Waterman in another life😂😂😂
Mary was a bloody tyrant

Man has never developed morals.

The true Christian faith is about the opposite of all this. Love, truth, peace, freedom, compassion, generosity, forbearance, kindness. All positives. But this is so often how it was used (as a tool of power) and is portrayed in these modern irreligious times.
Another excellent episode. Thankyou.
Nothing says loving like a protestant in the oven. Pure evil.
Queen Mary I of England. ora pro nobis
more like barry of the bronx
Mary claiming ill health may have been to avoid her father, thus making her health an issue to being fertile making the possibly of marriage slim pickings.
Poor Mary has been maligned over the centuries.
Mary being known as bloody is messed up, when her father killed more than she did during her four year reign. There so many leaders who'll take that name instead of Mary.
@Gary Allen No. Henry VIII and Elizabeth I killed Catholics, but they're not called "Bloody." In fact, Elizabeth has a queen regnant murdered, but she's considered one of England's greatest rulers, not guilty of regicide.
Henry's cruelty in treatment shaped Mary's hardness. She was not seen that way in her youth. If Henry had made a match with her to another English nobleman, and make them joint King and Queen of an English/Irish/wales joint thrown, he could have created an earlier unified Hibernia/Britannia/Cambria kingdom. He was so focused on a male heir, when Mary was a highly prized catch in her youth. He let the fruit rot on the vine by creating the negative look on Mary as a catch. Henry was allowed to believe his will allowed him to destroy anything and everyone in his way.
Poor Mary treated shabbily
I am a Catholic but feel absolutely no sympathy for this evil, misguided woman. Not that she was the only queen/king doing such things.
Monsters getting what they deserved.
Bloody Bytch.
I don't understand. Henry VIII was a murderer and a bad person all around, yet, he is still treated like a "king gone bad" for you in England. Don't you have a keener sense of reason or are you as blind as a rock?
Anne Boleyn does not receive enough criticism for how terribly she treated Princess Mary I. Anne said she would have Mary and Catherine of Aragon executed if Henry VIII went out of the country and she were given a regency. Honestly, the perception of Anne Boleyn as some sort of innocent victim who was beheaded simply because Henry VIII wanted out of the marriage is a biased and judgmental perspective from modern history.
The way she mistreated and encouraged Henry VIII to mistreat his daughter had a direct affect on Mary I's reign and if Henry VIII were the tyrannical monarch as most people say (usually w/o knowing the context of history or British Royalty) then Catherine of Aragon and Anne of Cleeves would have wound up on a scaffold like Anne Boleyn. Boleyn made enemies of most of her former allies when they were trying to end his first marriage and also, Henry VIII only executed the two wives that he believed had committed adultery which will never be definitively proven or disproven in Anne's case.
There’s too much of the establishment narrative so generally accepted in an unquestioning way , that one doesn’t notice the significant bias in the facts reported (and not reported) and in the words used to describe the various Tudor monarchs. For in fact, Mary did suffer from health issues, but what she suffered most from was the shocking cruelty of her father. Her health issues may have played a part in her delayed success at finding a royal suitor to marry, But what hurt her “marketability “as a princess bride, was Henry VIII’s declaration of her illegitimacy and the legitimacy of his marriage to her mother. This would Marher has damaged goods that any prints or king would think three times about before setting her up with one of theirs.And yes, did execute powerful people who refused to refute their protestant faith, after a group of protestants, even possibly involving her own sister, attempted a coup. So she regarded their faith not just a an issue of theology but as political treachery. Lastly, you mentioned how she imprisoned her sister Elizabeth; this was related to the coup where There was suspicion that Elizabeth at the very least knew about it, so Elizabeth got herself landed in the tower of London. And later released never to be seriously harassed by Mary again. But she didn’t kill her on trumped up charges, as their father did to Elizabeth‘s mother. Elizabeth was Mary’s next of Kin and was next in line to the succession. She didn’t kill Elizabeth, A protestant. But Elizabeth killed Mary Queen of Scots, Her next of kin in line to the throne, a Catholic. Who was less tolerant? Who is less violent or cruel or cold blooded? All of the tutors were. That’s the real truth. Mary just got scapegoated the identified whack job. she wasn’t the one that started the religious war in England that would go on for so many more years. Her father and her brother started it and continued it and she did and her sister did. If you would like a more fair and balanced accounting of her life I have a concise biography on the writers app Medium link.medium.com/mchzZxNDdnb
Henry VIII wasn't personally cruel to Mary. It was all politics in ridding himself of his 1st wife. Mary was the least tolerant by far and most cruel and cold-blooded. That is the history of "Catholicism"; cruel torture, persecution, and killing of so-called heretics meaning those who wouldn't bow to the papacy. Mary was determined to restore England to "Catholicism".
Elizabeth regretted the death of Mary Queen of Scots. Doubt that Mary I ever regretted all the Protestants she had burned at the stake.

At least her religion gifted her some peaceful last movements( Mary stated she had lovely dreams of children playing around and singing like saints in her sleep. ) I am gald she was able to passed away peacefully. May you rest in the heavens with your loved ones souls including Queen Catherine of Aragon of England and Queen Elizabeth 1
Poor Mary, she was abominable, but her father's treatment of her, and her mother was the cause. His treatment of his own children was inhumane. Expect , edward and his other bastard children.

So much war and persecution based on religious dogma. Not much has changed. How about playing nice to the best of your ability and not doing it because you expect a prize in an afterlife? Just do it because it's the right thing to do
With as much as Mary went through to bring back Catholicism, I’m stumped as to why she would leave the throne to a very Protestant Elizabeth.
Elizabeth was her next of kin, and next in line to the throne. Mary may have been brutal, but it takes a special kind of asshole to deliberately wipe out your immediate family (a.k.a. closest heirs) and leave your kingdom with a succession crises.
@@molliethomas2585 while everything you said is true, Princess Elizabeth's life hung on the balance during the reign of Queen Mary.
As long as Princess Elizabeth drew breath, she was a rival for the throne (willing or no). She was first sent to the Tower, but eventually to Hatfield House.
Some documents said she was beheaded by Elizabeth for trying to usurp the throne . Now how Mary truly died ? In bed or beheaded ?
That was Mary Queen of Scots not Bloody Mary.
@@joycegreer9391
Which one is Elizabeth half sister ?
@@philiphoang2845 Mary I, Bloody Mary.
If Mary was " Bloody", what would one call her father (who started the sectarian killings), her brother (who continued it) as well as her sister. How unfairly has history treated her. The facts are what they are.
What is truly bloody is the actions of Roman Catholicism which started long before Henry VIII. That is what Mary tried to force back onto England by force. England had already become Protestant. Edward and Elizabeth were just continuing that, and Edward was too young to be ruling independently.
@@joycegreer9391 The bloody events before Henry VIII were not religious. They were for the most part civil wars such as the War of the Roses. It was Henry VIII who started the religious wars by imposing Anglicanism on an overwhelmingly Roman Catholic England with no significant Protestant movement. Anyone who did not accept his Act of Supremacy was charged with treason which was punishable by death. Example are the martyrs Sir Thomas Moore and Bishop Fisher. What Mary I did was bring to justice those who had persecuted and killed Roman Catholics merely because they would not renounce their faith. Yes, Anglicanism was imposed on the English people under the threat of death.
@@valentinr.dominguez2892 So you never heard of the Inquisitions? Hmm. Roman Catholicism has always used torture, persecution, and killing to convert and enforce its rule. It labeled all who would not accept the papacy, or even only questioned R Cath, as heretics. All who tried before Martin Luther were burned at the stake. With the Inquisitions, it tried to eliminate all "heretics" from Europe.
Henry did not start any religious war. R Catholics started war by refusing to accept Henry as head of the church in England. Of course majority were Roman Catholic. That's all most knew. BS about Mary. It was now done, but she tried to restore "Catholicism" by force and death. It was NOT bringing anyone to "justice".
Of course opposing the King was treason. This was far from the only thing considered treason. Thomas More burned Protestants at the stake. He was NO martyr. He chose a man over God. All he had to do was accept Henry as head of the church in England, no big deal.
"persecuted and killed Roman Catholics merely because they would not renounce their faith"
Exactly what Roman Catholicism has ALWAYS done to everyone else. There ARE no Roman Catholic martyrs.
@@joycegreer9391 Sir Thomas Moore chose God over man (Henry VIII). Concerning the Roman Catholic Church, Henry VIII betrayed the Magna Carta and his own coronation oath with what he did with the Roman Catholic Church in England. Whichever way you want to twist it, Anglicanism was imposed on an overwhelmingly Roman Catholic England under the threat of death. Henry VIII did as the Scandinavian monarchs and the northern German princes had done previously which was support heretics not for their theology but with the goal of stealing church properties and lands to enrich themselves. This was the only reason for the success of the Reformation in those areas. Without the support of these monarchs, the Reformation would gave fizzled out. The legacy of the reformers and the Reformation was the breaking of the unity of the body of Christ into more than 120,000 pieces.
@@joycegreer9391 Tens of thousands of individuals were killed on charges of witchcraft in the Protestant northern German principalities and in the Protestant British Isles. Compare this to 3000 to 5000 individuals whose deaths were associated with the Spanish Inquisition. I wouldn't be pointing fingers if I were you.
The narrator's voice and tone is unbearable. PAINFUL.
@ali kamal I did. And his voice was the reason why.
I disagree....I've got used to it....he's a nice guy....we had a chat on here. Also, he's very informed....❤
A lot of this was down to inbreeding .
becuase humans were unaware that procreating in the same family line; didn't make it stronger. it actually diluted the gene pool. each generation having dominant recessive genes. if they inbred long enough; they would just revert back to animals more closely that of neanderthal. big foreheads oddly shaped faces ; etc. hell; even inbreeding past that; might give us an idea of what man looked like before
@@ChickenMcThiccken yes and many other health problems too with it ,I think it's why there are so many disabled kids these days also .
And a diet rich in sugar
@@jennifermoriarty2188 probably did they eat much fruit in those days to counter the sugar .
Is it just me of does he have an odd way of talking ?
It's a southern accent with heavy Yorkshire and Lancashire tones, highly likely his parents were from those parts
@8:45 mary wasn't a woman
It’s called Karma.........that’s what you get for persecuting Protestants.
It's a shame neither religions were wiped off the face-off the earth.
