The Glorious Revolution was nearly a century and a half after the break between England and Rome. Henry confiscated all the church properties and doled them out to his nobles. After that, no return to Catholicism was possible. Ask Mary. She spend her entire reign trying. There wasn’t anyone agitating for “constitution” during her reign either.

The article was about why in the past history of the Anglosphere (UK, US, etc) there has been hostility toward the Catholic Church from the people and leadership of the English speaking world. The return of church land is irrelevant to the issue. The Glorious Revolution illustrates the point of the article to the tee.
