What religion are the british royals......??

Question

what do they believe

Answer 1

Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom and the rest of her royal family (with a few exceptions) are Protestants. She is head of the Church of England, and is titled the Supreme Governor of the Church of England. In simple words, Protestantism was a religious protest against the more traditional Roman Catholic Church. The doctrines of the Reformation can be summarized as

a) the rejection of papal authority,

b) rejection of some fundamental Roman Catholic doctrines, c) the priesthood of all believers, d) the primacy of the Bible as the only source of revealed truth, and e) the belief in justification by faith.

Note: Although any royal member may choose its own religion (Protestant or Catholic), however, only true Protestant can inherit the crown, and any royals in the line of succession will be removed from having any rights to claim the throne, even if their spouse was a Catholic, and the royal remained a Protestant. For example, Peter Philip (Princess Anne's son) renounced his place as the 11th successor to the throne, after his engagement to his Catholic fiancée Autumn Kelly.

Answer 10

The Queen is head of the church of England but they like to play safe so they are multi-denomination

Answer 11

Do please note, Church of ENgland is political, not theological, in origin.  Not fundamentally protestant, it contains people who range in sympathy from catholic and orthodox to radical evangelical.  Makes it quite fun to observe.

Answer 12

church of england as King Henry the eighth founded it

Answer 13

Church of England (CofE) founded by Henry the Eighth. Known in some parts of the world as Anglican, Protestant, etc.  Faith is pretty tolerant which is a rarity in religion nowadays.

Answer 14

Her Majesty is Head of the Church in England and defender of the faith.  She is actually known to be a very traditional Christian lady.  (Her family notwithstanding!!).  HRH Charles, Prince of Wales has suggested that he wants to be styled as "Defender of Faith" (as opposed to "the faith.).

Interesting fact: When the queen crosses into her realm of Scotland, she becomes Presbyterian!!!  (But she is not the head of the Church of Scotland.)

Answer 15

Since Henry VIII's breakaway from catholicism, they are Church of England (protestant) and the monarch is the head of that church.

The church is known as the Anglican Church, and some churches around the world are affiliated to the Anglican Communion (including the Episcopal Church of the USA) - ST rightly points out the church is known for tolerance and inclusiveness - in the UK many CofE vicars are now women, some bishops are even openly g*y, but this was not always the case. In the days of Elizabeth I, the church was largely influenced by a hardline puritanical faction.

Answer 16

Anglican- very similar to the Catholic church.

Answer 17

As Betty is the head of the Church Of England one assumes that they're Christians.

Answer 18

DIY religion

Answer 19

Oh, you mean that German woman married to the Greek chap with the dysfunctional family. Church of England I believe.
