The fundamental religious purpose of the Protestant Reformation was to purify (and thereby improve) Christianity as it existed in the 16th century. Quite soon, and in the face of resistance from the Christian authorities of the time, this basic purpose was transformed into the formation of purer, truer, improved organizations that would stand independently of the official Church -- and enable a truer practice of the Christian faith.
