The Reformation was about making the religion more to man's liking and taste, while criticizing the Catholic Church for being a man-made abomination!

Oh, yes, and poor Tetzel financing St. Peters Basillica on the backs of the poor dupes buying indulgences, was just the "facade" needed for the protestant to rebel to the "good life".

No of course not. But what did the Protestants do different? They created another man-made religion. Are they any more perfect or any less guilty? What exatly did they change or improve?

lolol.

And nothing's changed. As it was then, it still is today.

Where does the money come from for all the ermine stoles and golden chalices and giant cathedrals and Prada shoes and most especially, for the over two billion dollars paid out to settle recent pederast priest sex abuse cases?

From the lost sheep in the pews.
