The Protestant Reformation was "started" by Martin Luther. The movement started because of corruption in the Roman Catholic Church that used indulgences- the paying for forgiveness of sins and simony- the buying of catholic positions. Luther ignited the movement by nailing the Ninety-Five Theses on the Power and Efficacy of Indulgences in 1517, which deeply criticized the church and the pope in some of their practices. Nailing this is widely seen as the catalyst for the whole movement, which has caused many students to think of Luther when they hear the word reformation.
