I would like to know what the difference is in Luther nailing complaints on a door, from Catholics today, nailing internet complaints against the current man of Rome.

Luther and Bergoglio are two peas in a pod.

They both revolted against the Catholic Church.

Wait a minute.. how can the holy head revolt against itself? Since its creation, popes have evolved their institution ... why fuss about it now?

There’s your mistake Luther revolted against the errors in the Roman church and sought to reform it from within. He only left the Roman sect when they would not re of use their error from within. Your pope is the head of your sect if you speak against him to find yourself in the same position as Luther. Welcome aboard

Nope. He's the pope.

You're not.

In that case, it puts YOU in the position of rebelling against the established authority of the Catholic church by calling for a cleaning house and a return to its Catholics roots.

That makes YOU a modern day Reformer.

After all, this pope is God's choice for the Catholic church. By rebelling against him, you are rebelling against the will of God.

Besides, Luther did not rebel against the Catholic church. He rebelled against the corruption and abuses the church engaged in, sort of like what you are doing, and for that they ex-communicated him.
