Catholic AnswerIf you read the actual story of Martin Luther, you soon realize that he didn't do anything as a response to the supposed corruption in the Catholic Church, but leave the Church, mutilate the Scriptures, and then start his own Church based on his version of the Scriptures. Martin Luther took the Sacred Scripture, threw out numerous books of both the Old and New Testament and inserted words in St. Paul's letters in order to change their meaning to something more amenable to the religion that Martin Luther wanted to start. Without going into all the filth which issued from Martin Luther's pen, the only thing that can absolutely be sustained is that Martin Luther used his accusation of corruption in the church to leave his monastery, violate his vows, and become a thoroughly dissolute individual. Martin Luther issued orders to throw out the moral commandments of the Old Testament "We must remove the Decalogue out of sight and heart." (De Wette 4, 188). "If we allow them--The Commandments--any influence in our conscience, they become the cloak of all evil, heresies and blasphemies." (Comm. ad Galat., p. 310). "If Moses should attempt to intimate you with his stupid Ten Commandments, tell him right out: chase yourself to the Jews." (Wittenb. ad. 5, 1573). Having gotten rid of all the moral commandments, he then goes on to state: "They are fools who attempt to overcome temptations [temptations to lewdness] by fasting, prayer and chastisement. For such temptations and immoral attacks are easily overcome when there are plenty of maidens and women." (Jen. ed. 2, p. 216) Luther used his accusations as a cloak to direct attention away from his own life and onto the Church.
