You are probably thinking of the protestant revolt which used abuses and wrongs by some in the Church as an excuse to leave Christ's Church and form their own.
Before the reformation the abuses of the Catholic Church were: # Simony # Absenteeism # Nepotism # Pluralism # Tithe # Indulgences Now the Church's controversy is about sexual abuses, the lack of women as priests and homosexuality in the clergy.
That would have to be Martin Luther :D
Corrupt officialdom refers to a situation where government officials or authorities misuse their power for personal gain or engage in unethical and illegal activities. This can include bribery, embezzlement, nepotism, and other forms of corruption that undermine the public's trust in the government and its institutions.
The overall corruption of the church was a big concern. The biggest example of the church's corruption was the selling of "indulgences" by the Pope and the Catholic Church.
Martin Luther, a German monk, protested abuses by the Catholic Church by posting his Ninety-Five Theses on the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg, Germany in 1517. This event is often considered the catalyst for the Protestant Reformation.
