Lurther's followers were called protestants because he left the Catholic Church to protest its practices. protestants prayed in there own launguages instead of Latin. they did not have monasteries and convents, and their churches did not accept the leadership of the pope.
Before the invention of the printing press, the only way the common person could find out about religion was through the church. The first thing a person would see as they entered the church, was the stained glass windows, which told a story that the church wanted them to see, then they would sit and listen to the stories that the priest would tell. They had no way of knowing how accurate (or false) they teaching was that they were hearing. After the invention of the printing press, the common people had more access to The Bible and other religious teachings which decreased the Catholic churches hold over the masses.

He invented the Printing press because before the printing press they wrote books by hand and they took for ever to finish 1. So they were really rare and only the people that were rich could afford to bye books so only the rich ones could read.

The printing press made it easier and faster to produce books, leading to a greater variety of ideas and writings being circulated. This challenged the Catholic Church's control over what books were published because it allowed for dissenting or alternative views to be spread more widely and quickly, weakening the church's authority in deciding what information was accessible to the public.
No, the Catholic Church did not really stifle medieval literature. There was a reason for this, which was that the literature during the middle ages was copied by hand or memorized, and the church could not really control individual writing literature easily prior to the invention of the printing press. The Catholic Church did stifle preaching, but that was a matter of something happening in public.

The Printing Press
.Roman Catholic AnswerGreat heavens, NO. The Catholic Church has been printing the Holy Bible since the invention of a printing press, and for the fourteen centuries before that, thousands of monks spent their whole lives making new Bibles. Keep in mind that it was the Catholic Church that wrote and approved the Bible to begin with. Without the Catholic Church there would be no Bible today, and certainly would have been none around for the protestants to mutilate. As it is, M. Luther removed seven books from the Bible, and tried mightily to alter the New Testament as well, he was foiled in the later attempt by other heretics. The only printing of Holy Bibles that the Church objected to were error filled books claiming to be the complete Bible. Please see the link below for more:
