Henry VIII was a vile heretic and the people who are his “spiritual” heirs and control his “legacy” prove over and over that they are not real Christians. They wear their agnosticism as a badge of honor and scoff at the concept of Christ as the Divine resurrected Savior. They are parasites who live off the wealth left them true believers that preceded them and the gullible.
This is a slightly academic point in the context, but the reading didn’t take place in an Anglican Church, as originally established by Henry VIII - it was a Scottish Episcopal church, which has a different history.
