Martin Luther nailed his 95 theses to the church door on Oct. 31, 1517. He started them in 1517 after the sale of Indulgences to the members of his Church he became angered by the false promises they made. So he penned the Disputation on the Power and Efficacy of Indulgences (95 theses).
Martin Luther King Jr. did not write the 95 theses. Martin Luther, a medieval monk, wrote the 95 theses. This was a list of why the Roman Catholic Church was wrong in selling indulgences.
His cause of posting the 95 theses was because of the selling of indulgences. Indulgences was a thing that would take you directly to heaven even though you did a bad thing. Did this help:D
What he supposedly posted on the Wittenberg Castle Church door on October 31, 1517 was the 95 Theses or called " A Disputation on the Power and Efficacy Indulgences".

Luther posted the 95 theses, because he was upset about the indulgences that Johann Tetzel had been selling and the papal keys sold by the pope, because both were using the income for themselves not the church out of greed.
Martin Luther (NOT King!) wrote his 95 theses against indulgences and other church abuses, and nailed them on the door of the Castle church in Wittenberg, Germany in 1517.

he wrote the 95 theses that told the church that they were wrong for selling indulgences and this led to the development of the religion of Lutheranism
