well the argument between them was about Henry making thomas becket the archbishop of cantubury and Henry thought that if thomas was made archbishop then thomas would follow all of henrrys rules and would help Henry by taking money from the poor and making himself even richer but what he didnt no was that when he made thomas archbishop he would betray him and when thomas did become archbishop of Canterbury he decided to help his people not his king .Henry then got really mad with thomas and said "will there be no rid of this troublesome priest?" and that's when four knights overheard him and decided to get rid of him once and for all and that is how becket died

Becket broke his promise and betrayed him and turned very holy and thought because he was the archbishop he didnt have to listen and do what Henry V11 said.
Henry appointed Becket as Chancellor in 1154.
Probably not. Henry II clearly regretted the death of Becket. He was very angry at Becket at the time of Becket's death, but he was also very ill, and we have no precise record of what he said about Becket at the time.
Thomas Becket was and Archbishop and therefore took a vow of chastity. He had no wife.
Because he supported Reginald de Broc and the king in the quarrel with Becket. The feud was not Henry II vs the Church, it was Henry II and various members of the church, including the Archbishop of York and the Bishops of London and Salisbury vs Becket.
When Becket became archbishop he became religions and did not do what Henry said
