He evidently did. When given the opportunity to recant his diatribe and work within the Catholic Church to reform it, he decided to go his own way and was excommunicated. That should have been little surprise to him.

Who caused many people to leave the Catholic Church?
Martin luther
The founder of the protestant church left the cathoilic church?
Well, Martin Luther found Protestantism but he never wanted to separate from the Catholic church just change their ways, But yes he did leave the Catholic Church.
Why was Martin Luther troubled by what he saw in the Catholic Church?
.Catholic AnswerMartin Luther was troubled by his own conscience. He could not abide that the Church, and his religious Order were holding him to a moral standard, so he had to leave the Church to indulge himself. There were various things that he complained about the Church, but as he, himself, is hardly credible, they would all be moot. For a complete discussion about Martin Luther's "issues" please see the book below.
What helped Martin Luther break away from the Catholic Church?
Neither Martin Luther King, Sr. nor Martin Luther King Jr. ever broke away from the Catholic Church. They were both ever Baptists, and never Catholics. It was correctly the man they had been named after, Martin Luther, who had the controversy with the Catholic Church five hundred years earlier. Martin Luther was excommunicated from the Catholic Church. They turned him away. He did not leave them.
Did not martin Luther want to marry a nun which is why he started his protest?
No: he protested how the Catholic Church was at the time...buying indulgences for sin, and the fact that the Catholic church was was very corrupt at the time. He did not reallly want to leave the Catholic Church, but was more or less forced out, because he could not along with a lot of the corruption.
Why was the Catholic Church so concerned about Martin Luther?
.Catholic AnswerThe Church was so concerned about Martin Luther because first of all, he was an Augustian Friar, and supposedly ordained a priest, thus under solemn vows to chastity, obedience, and poverty; and the Church had taken on the responsibility for his spiritual welfare when he voluntarily took those vows. .Secondly, after he left, abandoning his solemn vows without asking permission, and proceeding to violate them, he started to preach heresy and some of the princes of northern Germany were using his preaching as an excuse to leave the Church. At that point, Martin Luther's personal problems were starting to affect large numbers of the Christian faithful who were being denied the Sacraments by their princes, so the Church became very concerned as she was responsible for these people's eternal salvation..Eventually, Martin Luther's personal sins and heresy led to the lost of thousands of souls, denying them the sacraments and the Church, and generations after them. That is why the Catholic Church was so concerned about Martin Luther
What was one source of Martin Luther's conflict with the catholic church?
Another answer from our community:. Martin Luther's primary "gripe" with the Catholic Church was that the Church was holding him accountable for his moral behavior. In addition, M. Luther, supposedly, was a priest in the Augustinian Order. For an Augustinian priest, he was remarkably ignorant of his faith and his theology. Martin Luther objected to his vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience, and proceeded to leave his monastery without permission, and to break every one of his vows, without bothering to even ask for a dispensation from his solemnly professed vows. Martin Luther had many, many problems, and he blamed the Church for all of them. For a complete discussion of his "gripes" please get the book The Facts About Luther, by Patrick O'Hare:
How many complaints did martin Luther make against the catholic church?
Martin Luther was against the pope's idea of selling indulgences. He was not against the catholic faith. There are no mistakes in the catholic church.Further informationIndeed, Martin Luther was not looking for mistakes: he had been brought up and trained in the Catholic church, and sought earnestly for the Truth as taught by Christ. No one denomination is infallible, for the simple reason that the people who organise and lead the various denominations are not infallible, and Luther died still regarding himself as a Catholic. He did not leave the church because of any perceived "mistakes", but he was excommunicated for his later actions.One of Luther's biggest struggles was with the Church's demands of the time that one could only earn favour with God through good works. Through his in-depth study of the Scriptures, he reached the conclusion that salvation is a gift of God's grace, received by faith alone and by trust in Christ's death on the cross as the only means to that salvation. It was this and his objection to the sale of indulgences that led him to question the teachings of the Roman Catholic church: in particular, the nature of penance, the authority of the pope and the usefulness of indulgences.Luther was not looking for mistakes.
Why was Martin Luther in a position to make judgment in the Catholic Church?
Another answer from our community:Actually, Martin Luther, as an Augustinian Friar, doubly under vows both to his bishop, and to his Order, was in no position to pass judgment on the Body of Christ, which is what the Catholic Church is. Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ, guaranteed the Catholic Church until the end of the world, and set St. Peter (and his successors) over it, sending the Holy Spirit to guide it always. Any such judgment on Martin Luther's part would be presumption of the worst kind of sin.However, I am sure there are those who would say that his being a priest and a religious gave him the position to make judgment on the Catholic Church, but they would all be protestants anyway.
Who was the founder of the protestant religion?
I would not say "Protestant Christianity" was "FOUNDED," to me the best way to explain it would be started by a spark, Martin Luther's nailing the 95 Thesis to the church door in Wittenberg, because of differences he had with the Roman Church [Luther did not want to leave the church... He was forced]. Different Christian denominations began because of their disagreements with Martin Luther and then their disagreements with each other.
What did Martin Luther do to break up the Catholic church?
Martin Luther did to break up with the Catholic church in the time of October 31,1517 in Wittenburg Germany.He made the 95 thesis to stamp it in Wittenburg church castle.The 95 thesis was his allegation against the teaching of the Catholic church.
How did the pope react to martin luther's protest?
the pope banned him form the church but then later tried to get him back so people wouldn't leave the church.
