Best Answer

The Church reacted to Luther's criticism, as it has always done to any criticism of Faith or Morals, by proclaiming the Truth. Then, through dialogue, the Church attempts to show the person the falsehood of their belief and why they are incorrect in their conclusions.

How did the Catholic Church react to the creation of the Church of England?

Roman Catholic AnswerAll the bishops, save one, refused to go along with the suppression of the Church and allegiance to the new church established by the King. The faithful were denied the sacraments and forced, legally, to attend Protestant services. The practice of the Catholic faith was forbidden by law, and many people were martyred. All Catholic property from parish churches to monasteries was seized by the King. The Catholic Church established a seminary in Louvain, Belgium to train native born Englishmen to the priesthood. After their ordination they returned to England to offer the sacraments to the beleaguered faithful. Henry VIII was excommunicated by the Holy Father.


What are examples of ecumenism?

How did the people of England react to this? In fact, the vast bulk of the population were very angry at the way the Roman Catholic Church had used them as a source of money. To get married you had to pay; to get a child baptised (which you needed to be if you were to go to Heaven - so the Catholic Church preached) you had to pay; you even had to pay the Church to bury someone on their land (which you had to do as your soul could only go to Heaven if you were buried on Holy Ground). Therefore, the Catholic Church was very wealthy while many poor remained just that….poor. Their money was going to the Catholic Church. Therefore, there were no great protests throughout the land as many felt that Henry would ease up on taking money from them. Henry knew of the Catholic Church's unpopularity and, therefore, used this to his advantage.

How did individual princes react when the revolt against the Catholic Church occurred in Germany?

Roman Catholic AnswerThat depended entirely on the individual prince. Most of the princes in northern Germany saw in Martin Luther's revolt a chance to free themselves from Rome, so they supported the break. The good Christian princes of Southern Germany were horrified that anyone would attempt to break with the Church that Our Blessed Lord founded for their salvation, and remained Catholic.
