9. Why the differences?
Indicate on the progress line, where you are with understanding why the ‘look’ of the P and RC churches were so different. 5

11. Main 1
Watch the Simon Schama clip on the History of Britain (episode 6/15 part 1/6). What are the further differences you note between RC and P and begin to ascertain why they were different?
(first 10 minutes) 15

12. Main 2 - Why the differences?
Treasure Hunt. In the same groups, you will be hunting for the clues re. differences
You will have exactly 5 minutes to find these. They are in this part of the B block (This corridor, English, LRC corridor, Towards Humanities). There are 5 pieces of information.

13. Getting to Heaven
Catholics believed that Good works got you to Heaven (e.g. donating money to charity or the church). First you had to spend time in purgatory – a semi hell-like state – so that your sins could be absolved. You could speed up your time through purgatory by paying indulgences for masses to be said for your soul. These were normally said by the Priest in a Chantry house.
The Protestants didn’t believe in purgatory and thought that indulgences were only a way of the RC Church making money. Hence there was no need for the chantries. They believed that it was the power of your belief in God which got you to heaven (Justification by Faith). Extreme Protestants (Calvinists) believed that it was determined from birth whether you would get to heaven or not (Predestination)

14. The Role of the Priest/Minister
The Catholics believed that the Priest had a special role. Unlike the congregation of the Church (the ordinary people), he had direct contact with God. As a result of this special role, he wore ornate vestments and was celibate (clerical celibacy). He could not have a relationship or be married.
The Protestants believed that the people could have ‘contact’ with God by reading the Bible. Hence, the Minister was less important (hence plainer vestments and the allowance of clerical marriage)

15. Language and the Bible
Catholics believed that services should be conducted in Latin. It was the international language of the C16th and was suitably magical and mysterious. Likewise the Bible should remain in Latin, so the Priest could interpret it for the people. Wall paintings and stained glass windows were thus important in the Catholic Church as they helped the congregation understand Bible stories.
There was little need for distracting images in church for the Protestants as the services and Bible were in the vernacular (the language of the people – English). Protestantism was thus a preaching and reading religion and the Minister would read to the illiterate masses from a Lectern or would conduct a sermon from the Pulpit.

16. The Eucharist – the bread and wine
After the Priest blesses the bread and wine a miracle occurs, whereby it changes to the blood and body of Christ. This is called transubstantiation and is part of the service (the Mass). As the Priest is special, he alone takes the wine – not the congregation. This is called ‘communion in one kind’. The Eucharist takes place on the altar and this is extremely ornate, appropriate to the miracle taking place. Often a rood screen divides the congregation from the altar to add to its importance and the Priest conducts the service with his back to the people.
The Protestants do not believe in this miraculous change. Moderate Protestants (Lutherans) believed the presence of the spirit and extreme Protestants (Calvinists) believed in the ceremony merely to remember Jesus and the Last Supper. Both these views can be termed ‘Consubstantiation’. As a result, the communion (not mass) table was often ordinary and wooden and the congregation had the bread and the wine (Communion in both kinds). No rood screen needed to be present and the Minister usually faced the people.

17. Images and relics
To the Catholics, statues, icons, wall paintings, stained glass windows and relics were very important. They reminded people of the majesty and closeness of God and were vital to aid understanding as the service was conducted in Latin.
To the Protestants they were a distraction from the important business of listening to the Minister or from reading passages of the Bible (all in English), so one can interpret the word of God for oneself. Hence, the smashing of images (iconoclasm) was commonplace. This included the destruction of relics which were often seen as fakes.
