- Elizabeth I and religious policies. Erastian church
- 1559- Acts of supremacy and uniformity passed
- first parliament had met in 1559, three bills produced

- queen set up debate- the catholics backed down and got arrested
- twice rejected by the house of lords. marian bishops were opposed as they were not willing to grant this concession again
- Act of Uniformity
- This meant reinstated the use of the English Book of Common Prayer from 1552
- Only passed due to the absence of Marian bishops
- act of supremacy
- Elizabeth claimed Supreme Governor
- being only supreme governor meant that she did not put herself above the pope (just overseer). it was aimed mainly at extreme protestants
- The new Book of Common Prayer
- this was compromise in wanting to re-introduce the radical Second Book of common prayer
- this meant that during communion, the blood and body of christ was presented and the idea that it was a remembrance
- Removed insults to the Pope and the Black Rubric
- Holy days were an obligation however you pay one shilling for not attending church
- Royal injunctions issued in 1559
- No more Pilgrimages
- emphasised the royal supremacy and decline of papal authority
- Forbade supposed miracles, although not all images were not destroyed
- preaching was licenced
- Financial- she assumed control of the tax of the fruit and the tenths. Also could take control of bishops property.
