Who protested the selling of forgiveness of sins and was later convicted of heresy?
This isn't actually in the Old Testament. The person who did this was Martin Luther, well into the middle ages. The catholic church would sell what they called 'indulgences' (I'm pretty sure they had a different name) for a small tithing and the father of the church would grant forgiveness; and the catholic church exploded with wealth. Martin Luther protested this, and other things he deemed corrupt about the catholic church (such as the need to confess sins before a preacher). He posted a list of various protests against the Church, and the Holy Roman Empire in what he called his 'Ninety-five Theses' on the door of the All Saints Church in Wittenberg, but it may have been a different church in Hamburg. This sparked the Protestant reformation and the Lutheran practice. He was excommunicated by the Pope and declared an Outlaw by the Emperor of Rome.

Who were the people that protested some of the practices of the Roman Catholic Church?
First of all, it's just the Catholic Church, not the Roman Catholic Church. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is rarely used by the Catholic Church. . Secondly, the Catholic Church has been around since Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ, established it 2,000 years ago. In that time, there have been uncounted people who have protested the Church for all kinds of things. For instance, here is a short list of the "great heresies" in the past 20 centuries: The Circumcisers (1st Century) Gnosticism (1st and 2nd Centuries) Montanism (Late 2nd Century) Sabellianism (Early 3rd Century) Arianism (4th Century) Pelagianism (5th Century) Semi-Pelagianism (5th Century) Nestorianism (5th Century) Monophysitism (5th Century) Iconoclasm (7th and 8th Centuries) Catharism (11th Century) Protestantism (16th Century) Jansenism (17th Century)

Can a Catholic and Episcopal married couple be buried together?

What often happened to a heretic that spoke out against 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. A heretic that spoke out against the Church and refused to recant and submit would most often be punished with excommunication. The Church, of course, always tried to save the person first as she is the Body of Christ and is here for the sole purpose of bringing people to salvation, but if she fails in that, she excommunicates in an attempt to limit the damage done, as she did with Martin Luther and other heretics of that era.
