The Glorious Revolution

James II

He was a Catholic and worked on the belief that no one wanted another Civil War. 

Passed Declarations of Indulgence - allowed him to bypass any law

Heavily reinforced Catholicism - forbade anti-Catholic sermons, promoted Catholics in army, government, civil services and universities 

His wife gave birth to a son that would be Catholic, unlike the previous heir, Mary, who was a Protestant. Parliament saw a future
