In 1517, Martin Luther nailed his Ninety-Five Theses to the door of his church in Wittenberg, Germany. He condemned the decadency and moral decay of the Catholic Church and his actions came to be a starting point for the Protestant Reformation, which demanded a return back to the Christian principles of modesty and humbleness.
Answer and Explanation:
By 1520, Martin Luther was warned to recant part of his Theses or he would be excommunicated, but he refused and publicly set fire to the Papal decree which demanded it. In 1521 he was excommunicated by Pope Leo X through a papal bull, a papal decree which is equivalent in status to law. He was taken to the Diet of Worms, a general assembly of German estates, where he again refused to recant his Theses. Subsequently, his works were banned from circulation, but he stayed active and eventually became a key figure of the Reformation
