Answer :
Many people were suspicious of James II being King because they thought he was pro-French, pro-Catholic and wanted to be an absolute monarch. The English were the arch enemies of France and had just fought to become a Protestant country, opposed to the Catholic Church, the dominant religion in France. The English did not want to have a monarchy in place that had the power to have complete rule over the country, which is what would have happened had their been an absolute monarchy in place.
