Because his predecessor was a witch & Queen Elizabeth I had illegitimately took over the english thrown & began to hunt down Catholics that did not follow the new state religion.
King James would then write the edited, new bible & essentially change the religion. This was tantamount to sending your fellow Englishmen to hell because they no longer had ties to the true faith.
Yes, I seem to recall that it all got very complicated with the Tudors. Henry VIII wanted a divorce. He married his dead brother's wife who was from a powerful Spanish family and Catholics were not in favour of divorce so he invented his own religion. He then married the woman who became Elizabeth's mother. Henry had another daughter as well. Before that time there were no queens so Henry also changed those rules.
After Henry's death we had Mary who was brought up as a Catholic. She was known as Bloody Mary because she "eliminated" many of the new religion. Her brother, Edward VI did not last long and then we had Elizabeth for whom, one could argue, the new religion was created.
Elizabeth always thought he cousin, another Mary and a Scottish queen in her own right, was plotting against her. She was married to the French heir to the throne at one time as well but he died. Eventually, she was executed but the irony is that James I was her son so the Scots won anyway?
Yup, there is a lot of intrigue in the early Protestant revolt; it was a political shift disguised as a religious revolution.
Les we forget that Anne Boylen, the woman King Henry VIII would betray Rome for, he would later execute her for witchcraft.
People will dismiss that fact but what adds to the intrigue is that her Daughter, Queen Elizabeth I, would openly practice the occult. Her astrologist was a hard-core occultist by the name of John Dee. Her head of intelligence was Francis Bacon.
While King James may have been Queen Mary’s son (Catholic Queen, rightful heir to the English thrown) he would go on to publish the 75 year old Protestant Bible with all of the edits made by Luther.
I think this was what set off Catholics in England to take down this Monarchy; they viewed publishing an altered, edited Protestant Bible tantamount to deceiving untold amount of souls and dragging them to hell. I can see why Guy Fawkes was so passionate about taking down this depraved monarchy.
Anne Boleyn was accused of witchcraft by King Henry VIII and her enemies, but witchcraft was not a charge used to convict her. Looking at their daughters occult connection, I believe that the fruit did not fall far from the tree.

I thought the charges at Anne Boleyn's trial were adultery, incest, and treason not witchcraft?
