According to the logic of the Protestant sects every idiot can found its own Church. They might claim to be "christian" but it is fake.

I believe the Patriarch(s?) of the Eastern Orthodox Churches say the same thing, anyway.

But if he accepts that there's absolutely nothing special about a group of people declaring themselves a "church," then he'd have to accept the fact that HE isn't special just because he belongs to a group of people who have declared themselves a "church."

Well, no, obviously.

The Catholic Church is the only true church.

Unless you ask Orthodox Christians. Then it's the Orthodox Church that is the only true church.

Henry VIII is described as being quite handsome until his later years. He only started gaining weight after 1536, well after the formation of the Anglican Church.

And the guy had a number of children. The problem was having a son. Something beyond either parents control.

And yes, Protestants are Christians. This isn't the 1600's. Get over it already.

That's just incorrect. He was actually quite the suave guy for his time. And had many children. And wasn't made ugly until much later in his reign. The problem was the Catholic Church, which was, well... fucked up.

And in a monarch's world, Henry was just trying to preserve his line and the security of the state (democracy would be better, but it's still 1500's England) by attempting to father a male heir to the throne.

I wouldn't say that. At all. But... I do believe that Protestants should be recognized as Christians. Because they are... and will always be...
