On 27 December 1170, Thomas Becket was assassinated.

Thomas Becket was a man of much influence and the archbishop of the Roman Catholic church of Canterbury. For many years, Becket was the right hand man to King Henry II (Henry Curtmantle) who was the supreme ruler or England from 5 March 1133 – 6 July 1189. Both the king and Becket were the most influential people at this time and had a strong pull on what the body of believers and society felt about certain situations and ideals. But things wouldn’t continue on this path for long once Thomas Becket and King Henry II began having disputes about their different ideals and the separation of church and state.

After years of controversy the king would have the final words about the authority held by church and state. On a cold British night, he sent four of his knights to assassinate Becket who was at the Catholic church of Canterbury.

We see many arguments today about the separation of church and state. Was the conflict between Henry II and Becket just the beginning of a long list of arguments between the church and state in the modern world? We also see many disputes over cultural and religious differences of nations. What do you think should be the authority of the church and the authority of the state? Where should the line be drawn for both?
