During that time, Luther thought the Catholic Church had become corrupt. He didn't so much object to the teachings as much as the practices themselves. He attempted to bring the church back to what it was, but the church rejected his ideas and he was ex-communicated.
Roman Catholic AnswerLuther was an extremely disturbed individual who left his Order without obtaining permission, broke all of his solemn vows which he had taken with knowledge of the consequences of such an action. At first he didn't so much object to any teachings of the Church as to a) what he perceived as teachings (and this is problematic as the Augustianians are known for their education in St. Augustine's teaching and Luther was apparently quite ignorant of more than one of his teachings) and b) the teachings of a few individuals who were preaching in Germany which was not approved by the Church.In other words, he was objecting to practices of a few isolated individuals who, themselves, were not following Catholic teaching. Later on in life, Luther objected to any teachings which contradicted the way in which he, himself, wanted to live - read "in sin" so he came up with his own brand of Christianity as a way to save himself while not following Christ and His teachings.
