The Act Of 95 Theses Set Off The Redormation.
the 95 theses in 1517
Martin Luther, on Reformation Day, October 31, nailed his Augsberg Confession to the door of the church setting off the Reformation. The Protestant Reformation had 48 articles of disagreement with the Roman Catholic Church including indulgences, papal authority and salvation as a gift.
Back during the time of Martin Luther and the reformation, Luther pointed out the fact that the church was making money off of guarantees of forgiveness, and were asking money to 'forgive the dead' and allow them to go to heaven.
The spark that set off the Protestant Reformation was Martin Luther's objection to the sale of indulgences by the Catholic Church. Luther's beliefs and criticisms developed into a larger movement that questioned the authority and practices of the Catholic Church, ultimately leading to the split between Protestant and Catholic Christianity.
First off, it's just Catholic, not Roman Catholic. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the official Catholic Church. . Secondly, Martin Luther never started a movement to reform the Catholic Church, Martin Luther LEFT the Catholic Church to start his own Church. Which is a completely different thing. That is commonly mislabeled as the protestant reformation, Catholics refer to it as the protestant revolt.
The Reformation significantly impacted Christianity by challenging the authority of the Roman Catholic Church and leading to the formation of Protestant denominations. It emphasized the importance of individual Bible reading and interpretation, rejected certain Catholic doctrines and practices, and advocated for a more direct relationship between believers and God. The Reformation also led to religious conflicts and divisions, shaping the way Christianity is practiced and understood to this day.

If by the Church you mean the Catholic Church, Martin Luther's criticisms struck a chord amongst many that were turned off by the corruption of the Catholic Church. The Reform was part of an era where people started questioning authority.
JUst off the top of my head...THe Vatican...
It was when Martin Luther decided to "reform" the Church. It was also started with the lust of Henry VIII for Anne Boleyn and Anne Boleyn's lust for power. Basically, these people didn't want to follow the rules of the Church, so they went off and started their own churches.
