Not now, but back in Luther’s day

oh please....the violence Catholic? protestant was Barely worse than the Protestant/Catholic....get over it....the protestant revolution (notice I didn’t say reformation) was wrong, wrong, wrong...Luther, Wesley, Zwingley, Calvin Henry VIII, etc etc etc decided that they, not Christ, could form a church here on Earth......I may be wrong, but I’ll stick with the one that the Savior Himself founded.....when you decide to “reform” from without, an organization, you don’t get to make the rules as to what the original organization is. You can make up your own rules pertaining to your dissident group, Mormans, Jehovah Witnesses, Adventists, etc.....but don’t try to tell the Catholic church what they should believe! Again, the word protestant means somethine....it means that you are protesting against the Catholic Church.......have at it, but don’t try to change the true church of Christ.....there is only one you know, not 20,000 disperate denominations all of which think that thay have discovered the truth!!!

I may be wrong
That's the part you got right. Luther didn't leave the Roman Church, but tried to reform the Church from within. The pope responded by putting a price on Luther's head and excommunicated him.
