When Archbishop of Canterbury Hubert Walter died on 13 July 1205. The Canterbury Cathedral chapter claimed the sole right to elect Hubert's successor and favoured Reginald. John wanted John de Graham, one of his own men, so he could influence the church more. When their dispute could not be settled, the Chapter secretly elected one of their members as Archbishop. A second election imposed by John resulted in another nominee. When both of these elected arch-bishops arrived in Rome, Pope Innocent III rejected both of them, and elected Stephen Langton to the post. Langton was not accepted by John, the Barons nor the Bishops. Innocent placed the English Kingdom under interdict and excommunicated John. The dispute was finally ended in 1213 when John finally submitted to the Pope.
England was put under interdiction. In theory, all church services were cancelled, other than baptism and extreme unction (though it would be surprising if this decree was completely observed). Bishops who dies were not replaced; others headed for exile - at one point only one bishop was physically present in England.
Then the Pope upped the ante and excommunicated John - and encouraged Philip of France to invade England and overthrow John. This led to a rather messy civil war.
Eventually, John backed down, and made himself a vassal of the Pope
king john was awesome!
NEW RESPONDENT
In 1207 king John quarrelled with the pope about who should be appointed Archbishop of Canterbury. The quarrel went on getting worse and worse and John's uncompromising and arrogant behaviour so outraged the pope that the king was excommunicated and England fell under the Interdict.
After five years of loggerheads, in 1213 John, pressed by the public opinion, gave in and made an act of political obedience towards the pope.
Henry VIII had an argument with the pope because the pope would not allow him to divorce his wife, whom he was unhappy with for not having a male child to be his successor. this dispute eventually caused Henry to split from Catholicism, and start the Church of England, of which he was the head.
The monks wrote bad things about John,some even false because King John didnt like the pope and the pope didnt like him.
he was a to and extent(a fair king), because sometimes he did good stuff like stood up to pope in todur time*-*
The Tudors liked King John, this was the time when King Henry the 8th ruled. Henry did alot of things John did, lke quarrelling with the pope and chasing after women! The Tudors had sympathy for King John when he lost France because King Hnery had problems with the French. Also Tudors admired John for standing up to his Barons because Tudors did not expect Barons to interfere with anything. Hope this was helpful xx

John raised taxes too high , he fell out with the pope lost nearly all his land in France He lost all his wars murdered his nephew, arthur only listened to advice from a few fellow advisors ignored the rules in the magna carter johns father and brother taxed the barons heavily played a rubbish king.

King John's quarrel with the pope was about who they wanted to be the archbishop of Canterbury. This had an effect on England because of the quarrel the pope stop any services for 7 years this was called an interdict .
King john signed the magna carta because he was unfair to the peasants and he argued with the pope
he didn't represent the church like a king should. He always argued with the pope.
The reson the pope shut down all the churches in England was because the 2 of them had an argument on who would be the next Archbishop of Canturbury.This led to the pope (the holyist man at the time) to get angry at King John. The pope then excommunicated (banished) John from all the churches under his power. I really hoped this helped. :) :) :) :) :) ;) ;) ;( ;)
the peasants the pope the bishop's (which is why he had to sign the magna carta)
Actually, all popes are. Besides being the head of the Catholic faith, the pope is also the ruler of the country of Vatican City.
