Best Answer

Martin Luther did not break from the Roman Catholic Church. 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.

.

When Martin Luther left the Catholic Church he was the culmination of a long process that had been going on in Europe for around two centuries in which men had gradually lost the religious fervor which had guided their lives for centuries before that. In the process of losing that, and the general disdain for the Church which had become prevalent, Luther started a movement of people more interested in their own sins and their own pleasures so that started to form Churches after their own desires rather than what God wanted. This was the start of the protestant heresy which has continued unabated until the present day and resulted in nearly 40,000 different "denominations" all based on what different individuals think is right, rather than God.
