https://www.newadvent.org/cathen/ The الموسوعة الكاثوليكية says this: "Before the breach with Rome under Henry VIII there was absolutely no doctrinal difference between the faith of Englishmen and the rest of Catholic Christendom, and 'Anglicanism,' as connoting a separate or independent religious system, was unknown. The name 'Ecclesia Anglicana,' or English Church, was of course employed, but always in the Catholic and Papal use of the term as signifying that part of the one Catholic Church under the jurisdiction of the Pope which was situated in England, and precisely in the same way as the Church in Scotland was called the 'Ecclesia Scotticana,' the Church in France, the 'Ecclesia Gallicana,' and the Church in Spain the 'Ecclesia Hispanica.' That such national or regional appellations were a part of the style of the Roman Curia itself, and that they in no sense could have implied any indication of independence from Rome, is sufficiently well known to all who are familiar with pre-Reformation records." نسخة محفوظة 03 فبراير 2018 على موقع واي باك مشين.
