Please read WP:LEAD. What exactly is the Tyndale Bible and why is it significant? The introductory paragraph should address this. howcheng {chat} 06:38, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

The edit by MisfitToys addresses this point and is satisfactory.
The Church's objections to Tyndale's translation began before Henry VIII's break with Rome, and continued afterwards. The reference to the Roman Catholic Church immediately after the Character heading was therefore not entirely correct. My original "Church" avoids a complicated explanation and is preferable, so I reverted. The other references to "Roman Catholic" or "Catholic Church" in the paragraph are correct.EEye 00:26, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
