Answer 1

First, please DON'T use the first answer to this question!

"The 16th century religious movement marked by rejection of some Roman catholic doctrine a practice and caused reformation of the Protestant churches."

It makes no sense AND the reformation didn't reform the *Protestant* churches -- it established them!

The reformation came about because many clerics and lay people did not agree with the practices of the Catholic Church, especially the one known as Indulgences. Also, reformers did not believe many trappings of the Catholic church were necessary (confession, celibacy, etc.).

Reformers also believed that one could talk to god directly.

Two of the most famous reformers were Martin Luther and John Calvin. Luther is most famous for the 95 Theses he posted on a church in Germany in 1517 that is the symbolic beginning of the reformation..

So, you could use a sentence like this ...

"The protestant reformation came about as a response to corruption and abuses in the Catholic church including, but not limited to, the sale of Indulgences, and a belief that there was no need for mediation between a person and God."

Of or relating to Protestants or Protestantism.

A Christian belonging to one of the three great divisions of Christianity (the other two are the Roman Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church). Protestantism began during the Renaissance as a protest against the established (Roman Catholic) church. That protest, led by Martin Luther, was called the Reformation, because it sprang from a desire to reform the church and cleanse it of corruption, such as the selling of indulgences.

# Protestants hold a great variety of beliefs, but they are united in rejecting the authority of the pope. Protestant groups include the Amish, the Anglican Communion, the Assemblies of God, the Baptists, Christian Science, the Congregationalists, the Lutheran Church, the Mennonites, the Methodists, the Presbyterian Church, and the Quakers.

Reformation
ref·or·ma·tion (rĕf'ər-mā'shən)

1. The act of reforming or the state of being reformed.
2. Reformation A 16th-century movement in Western Europe that aimed at reforming some doctrines and practices of the Roman Catholic Church and resulted in the establishment of the Protestant churches.

Reformation

Break with Roman Catholicism and the establishment of Protestant churches in the 16th century. Though reformers such as Jan Hus and John Wycliffe attacked abuses in the Roman Catholic church in the late medieval period, the Reformation is usually dated from 1517, when, according to tradition, Martin Luther posted his Ninety-five Theses on the church door in Wittenberg. Various Protestant denominations were soon founded by more radical reformers, such as Huldrych Zwingli and the Anabaptists. John Calvin established a theocracy in Geneva after his conversion to the Protestant cause. The Reformation spread to other European countries and soon dominated northern Europe. Spain and Italy remained resistant to Protestantism and became centres of the Counter-Reformation. In England, where Henry VIII founded the Church of England in 1534, the Reformation's roots were primarily political rather than religious, motivated by the pope's refusal to grant Henry a divorce. In Scotland the Calvinist John Knox led in the establishment of the Presbyterian church (see Presbyterianism).
