Kinda like what he wrote about Jews here.Diversion will not work.
The Catholic church chased him and wanted him dead. Then it went about murdering those that taught a gospel message .
A murderous church with human control at its core wanted the poor monk dead, and not because of his political positions, but because he challenged their superstition and false doctrine

The Catholic Church AND the secular Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire and his lords. Luther was lucky to have one good friend higher up.

It’s your story and you are free to tell it however you wish. I completely understand you want to ignore the treatment Luther prescribed to those who didn’t believe as he did.
That WAS your point, wasn’t it?

Self-defense?

the poor monk who supported the German princes against the people? The princes who wanted separation from the power of The Church that prevented them from making serfs of their peoples
