Martin Luther's 95 Theses criticized the Catholic Church's sale of indulgences, questioned the authority of the Pope, and emphasized the importance of faith and scripture over tradition. These challenges sparked the Protestant Reformation by questioning the Church's teachings and practices, leading to a split in Christianity and the formation of new Protestant denominations.
