Cardinal Newman Beatified · February 11, 2009
“The Vatican has approved the beatification of Cardinal John Henry Newman, the English convert and theologian who has had immense influence upon English-speaking Catholicism…wrote Catholic News Agency, April 23, 2008, quoting the Birmingham Mail.
John Henry Newman was born in 1801. As an Anglican priest, he led the Oxford Movement that sought to return the Church of England to its Catholic roots. His conversion to Catholicism in 1845 rocked Victorian England… He died in 1890…”
At least CNA stated some of the facts truthfully. John Henry Newman’s work in leading the Oxford movement was one of the great deceptive feats of Anglican Church history. It did have immense influence on Catholicism by greatly strengthening it, but it also had a devastating effect on the Anglican Protestant church.
Newman, and others, acted the part of traitors and held secret Roman Catholic ritualism and fostered secret monastic orders in the church of England. Eventually Newman converted to Rome and became a priest. Over time, he led many other Anglican priests to convert to Rome. He had been so effective in undermining English Protestantism, that Pope Leo XIII elevated him to a Cardinal in 1879, bypassing the tradition of first making him a bishop or archbishop.

WOW! Walter J. Vieth, in his new Rekindling the Reformation series, talked about how the Roman church sought to make Newman, at that time, a saint. And here it is! What a blow to the Reformation!
