The issue is this, Martin Luther was right but his correction was not to return to Orthodoxy but to innovate.

From the Protestant branches you had an explosion of Christian re-interpretations (all claiming to be the reveal truth long suppressed somehow-more or less). I think protestantisim has mutated so much it is no longer recognizable as a Christian theology but a Christian sociology.

Which then turns to Orthodoxy and Catholics have to confront a tradition in the Greek rite that is as Apostolic and Catholic.

I suppose it depends an exactly which premises of Luther's you are refering to. Most church reforms recognize a creeping secularism and move to restore the sacred and the traditional. Most of the present day churches have embraced the secular and the sacred seems to be diminishing. What makes the current version of creeping secularism more insidious is that it has its roots in atheism and immanentism born of "the age of enlightenment". We all know that Lucifer means light-bringer and that he can disguise himself as an angel of light. It is disheartening to see so many Christians as self-annointed "enlightened" progressives. As for the Greek tradition; the Roman Catholic Church recognizes the fact that they believe in transubstantiation and therefore fall in line with much else within the Christian tradition.
