Westminster Abbey was formerly a Catholic Church, but in the English Reformation (by 1559) it was transformed (along with much other Church property in the British Isles) into the Anglican Church.

The Queen should give Westminster Abbey back to the Catholic Church.

And do you also expect the Roman church to right every wrong it did during the past 1600 years??

History moves on. I suggest you do also. Life is better when you live in the present.

After the Catholics help get back the churches stolen by islamists...

Funny how some lately want to restart the crusades but only against Protestants... you know, the usual suspects in Christ...

Nearly 500 years on, looks like an Anglican church to me and one of the jewels of the Queen’s properties.

Poor England is overrun with muslims! Maybe bringing back Catholics would turn the tide!

Stolen? It should be pretty easy to find. It’s not like you can easily sneak it out of the country.

Isn't Charles Darwin buried there?

How about give back all that was stolen, in return the Church take over medical system (like the hospitals they started centuries ago) and replace the National Health disaster?! Fair trade?

Don’t hold your breath....

There was a Poirot mystery that hinged (in part) on the difference between the Westminster Abbey and the Westminster Cathedral. The perp seemingly referred to one but clever Poirot realized the reference was to the other, and that made all the difference..... ha ha. Murderer caught!

Raised Catholic and became Lutheran later, I never ran into anti-Protestant stuff until I read posts on FR. Quite enlightening.

More likely it will soon be given to the moslem trash...

It is interesting that in England, especially in London, you will find Catholic Churches, built in the 1800s, that sit within a few blocks of the original Catholic Church that are now Anglican churches.

And, Catholic churchgoers now out number the Anglicans.

It only seems right that the Catholic Church should get all their churches back.

Another thing, Mary I is buried in Westminster directly beneath Elizabeth I.

That just don't seem right.

Well if you are trying to make up a new “religion” you need buildings and an ax to chop off heads of those who try to stop your larceny.
