Martin Luther was a great man who made a big speech on how the Americans treated the African Americans. He was the man that sorted everything out. I am learning about this in school and I'm happy to answer more questions on him!

Firstly, because Martin Luther was a great priest.

Martin Luther is considered the founder or leader of the Protestant Reformation, which changed the religious and political map of Europe rather significantly. It began as an attempt to reform the Roman Catholic church and ended up establishing separate churches in conflict with the Catholics (and sometimes each other). Sometimes these churches were also in conflict with the state when the royalty was an adherent of a different faith.

Because at that time many people were dissatisfied with the practices of the Catholic Church. People had been dissatisfied for a while. When Martin Luther put up his 95 Theses for discussion change began all across Europe.

Catholic AnswerMartin Luther's ideas were not popular at all with the common man, nor for that matter with anyone other than the individual princes of northern Germany who saw a chance to be free from Roman influence. Even the other protestant "reformers" were rather at odds with him, they did not think that he should be editing the New Testament in the fashion in which he did, they didn't like his interpretation of Christianity, etc. The only ones who appreciated his ideas were some princes in Germany who used him for their own purposes. Even Henry VIII of England, who started his own protestant church thought that Martin Luther was beyond the pale.
