Correct answer choice is :

D) More refused to recognize the king as the head of the Church of England.

Explanation:

Thomas More also denied the king's cut from the Catholic Church, declining to acknowledge Henry as Supreme Head of the Church of England and the dissolution of his wedding to Catherine of Aragon. After denying to take the Oath of Supremacy, he was condemned of revolution and executed. More once solemnly considered quitting his legitimate profession to become a priest.
