It seems that he was a little out of his depth at times with the the destruction policy at times.

Apparently the church was established by St Cuthbert and he and his flock secretly practised their religion away from the Catholicism that already ravaged the country. Henry, hearing of this, conveniently, made himself head of St Cuthbert's church so that he could carry on with his adulterous behaviour...A bad man indeed, who has left a stain, on the already established Church of England, albeit a secret worship, of the same god, but with different ethics! Off topic Cherry, I do hope you are well and thought I'd let you know that I have booked for us to stay at The Coach House at Crookham, in October to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We have been allocated room 5, which, I am assured by Leona, will be suitable for our needs. I mentioned your name and she spoke warmly of you, so it sounds like we are in for a treat!...Di..xxx Interesting stuff again Cherry, my Anglican parish priest always maintained that Henry VIII did not establish the Church of England, but merely made himself head, of an already established Anglican Church.
