Jesse Browner's Informal History of HospitalityHow did life before the Renaissance and reformation compare to life after?
Life before the Reformation:
life before the reformation was quite different from life after the reformation. there were no bibles before the reformation, and after Luther (Martin Luther- NOT Martin Luther King, don't get them confused) brought about the printing press (particularly Germany was effected by this) and so every member of the public began to be able to read the bible and understand it in their own ways- there was a type of freedom of belief available that was never experienced with catholics always being told what is right and wrong and what to believe and what not to believe by the catholic church and the interpretation of hte bible by the Pope.
THE RENAISSANCE
the renaissance- the rebirth. one can see a dramatic difference made in lifestyle/society particularly in art and music. if you have time, Google image pre-renaissance art and contrast it to that of renaissance art. the music is also very different too.
as one can see life is very very different before and after these two times. if you would like more information in more detail, please feel free to email me. :)

What practices was not a source of contention between the Catholic Church and Martin Luther?
As you are not listing any of the possible "practices" in your question, I'm just going to take a stab in the dark; for instance, infant baptism was never a source of contention. Initially indulgences were not a source of contention (Luther was only objecting to the people's misunderstanding of indulgences), but later he rejected the entire system.
One user said that the sacrament of communion was often an answer that they were looking for when this question is asked on a test, but Martin Luther most definitely did not believe in transubstantiation, he believed in consubstantiation.

What were the effects of the French wars in religion?
he French Wars of Religion (1562-98) is the name of a period of civil infighting and military operations, primarily fought between French Catholics and Protestants (Huguenots). The conflict involved the factional disputes between the aristocratic houses of France, such as the House of Bourbon and House of Guise (Lorraine), and both sides received assistance from foreign sources.
The exact number of wars and their respective dates are the subject of continued debate by historians; some assert that the Edict of Nantes in 1598 concluded the wars, although a resurgence of rebellious activity following this leads some to believe the Peace of Alais in 1629 is the actual conclusion. However, the Massacre of Vassy in 1562 is agreed to begin the Wars of Religion and the Edict of Nantes at least ended this series of conflicts. During this time, complex diplomatic negotiations and agreements of peace were followed by renewed conflict and power struggles.
At the conclusion of the conflict in 1598, Huguenots were granted substantial rights and freedoms by the Edict of Nantes, though it did not end hostility towards them. The wars weakened the authority of the monarchy, already fragile under the rule of Francis II and then Charles IX, though it later reaffirmed its role under Henry IV.
How did Martin Luther feel about the doctrine of transubstantiation?
Martin Luther believed that the body and blood of Christ really was present in the bread and wine of the sacrament.
What year did Martin Luther start the Protestant Reformation?
The beginning of the "Protestant movement" is more commonly known as The Reformation, or The Protestant Reformation.
It's not easy to say exactly when Protestantism began (or when the Reformation began), because several things contributed to it, and they didn't all happen at the same time. The most common dating begins in 1517 when an Augustinian monk called Martin Luther brought things to a head by publishing his Ninety-Five Theses (Wikipedia link).
He was protesting against (among other things) the Roman Catholic Church's selling of indulgences. Indulgences were a way of paying money to have sins forgiven, and in 1517 the then pope, Leo X, started selling indulgences to raise money to rebuild St Peter's Basilica (cathedral) in Rome.
Luther reacted against this blatant abuse with his 95 Theses, which he nailed to the church door, as an invitation to start a debate. The church had a big problem with this, because the as indulgences were authorised by the Pope, Luther was effectively challenging the Pope's authority, and saying that the Pope could not forgive sins, only God could. This did not go down well! When Luther repeatedly stuck to his position the church excommunicated him, and he was outlawed by the emperor. He would have been killed, but was abducted and protected by the Frederick 3rd, Elector of Saxony.
The Reformation took some years to get going, and happened at slightly different times in different countries and cities. For example, the English reformation took place between 1529 and 1536.
Protestantism's two most important doctrines or beliefs were (and still are):
1. "sola scriptura" - the Bible, and only the bible, is Christians' final authority in all things. (The Catholic Church believed in the ultimate authority of the Bible AND of the Church. That's why the protestants used the term "sola scriptura" - ONLY scripture, not the church's authority too).
2. "sola fide" - justification by faith alone - which means that we can be forgiven by God and considered righteous by Him not because we deserve it (we don't), but ONLY by faith in Jesus Christ's death on the cross, where he took the punishment we deserved. This belief contrasted with the Catholic belief that our good deeds are also necessary for us to be 'justified' (considered righteous) before God, implying that Jesus Christ's death for us on the cross was not enough.

The Edict of Worms (Reichstag zu Worms) was a general assembly (a Diet) of the estates of the Holy Roman Emperor that took place in Worms, a small town on the Rhine river located in what is now Germany. It was conducted from January 28 to May 25, 1521, with Emperor Charles V presiding. Although other issues were dealt with at the Diet of Worms, it is most memorable for addressing Martin Luther and the effects of the Protestant Reformation. The previous year, Pope Leo X had issued the Papal bull Exsurge Domine, demanding that Luther retract forty-one of his 95 theses and other writings related to or written by him that criticised the Church. Luther was summoned by the Emperor. Prince Frederick III, Elector of Saxony obtained an agreement that if Luther appeared he would be promised safe passage to and from the meeting. Such a guarantee was essential after the treatment of Jan Hus, who was tried and executed at the Council of Constance in 1415 despite a safe conduct pass. Source: Wikipedia 3/14/2008
