Why did henry viii leave the catholic church in the 1500s? a: he wanted to prevent the sale of indulgences. b: he married anne boleyn in defiance of the pope. c: he drafted a list that criticized church practices. d: he translated the bible into german and english.

B. He married Anne Boleyn in defiance of the Pope. Henry VIII, in search of a male heir to his throne, went against the papal decision to not divorce Henry from Catherine of Aragon (that was unable to give the king the male heir he wanted).
