How did the arrival of printing technology in the west profoundly destabilized the Catholic Church as the dominant institution of its day?
This answer assumes you mean, " ... profoundly destabilized the Church?" In my view, printing destabilized the Church by making the Bible more readily available to lay persons, especially in their native languages. When people began reading the Bible, it was inevitable that they would often come to conclusions about faith and practice that differed from Church teaching. This destabilized the Catholic Church because many more people were able to read the Bible. When only church leaders were able to read the Bible they were able to put in their own opinions and tell the people what they wanted them to do. When the masses got their hands on the Bible and read it for themselves, they discovered that a lot of what their church leaders were saying was actually not from the books.
