    EU West Gremany (And later just Germany) made pedophiles into foster parents for hundreds of kids and allowed them to be abused for decades

    Because I listed things I consider bad which started in Germany, and then it degenerated into religious philosophy from there...

    That however is a failing of an individual - and nobody ever pretended that the Pope cannot sin. What Reformation did was that it brought the doctrine itself into question, and the authority of the Church as an institution. What you are talking about is demonic possession, which is a...

    That is freaking ugly. In fact, it is probably the ugliest church I have ever seen, and I am counting into this such modernist monstrosities as the Concathedral of St. Peter in Split and Church of St.Kirin in Zagreb. As for the episcopal churches, aren't Episcopalians basically a crossover...

    That depends entirely on whether said endemic corruption is actually perceived as such. If something is not seen as bad, it will not shake people's trust into institutions. Just look at the Church of Marx or today's Church of Woke: clinically insane and self-contradictory, yet extremely...

    And no. Church had had its failures and problems, and Luther was completely correct in identifying them. But these problems were wholly institutional, not doctrinal. What Reformation did was shake people's trust in the moral authority of the Church as a whole. That was far more damaging than any...

    Reformation was not necessarily bad, as Martin Luther merely intended to reform the Church from within. Protestantism as it happened, however, was. It destroyed (or at least heavily shook) the moral authority of the Church and destroyed the religious unity of the West. All of these had massive...

    It always has been, it is not something new... Protestantism started out in Germany (by accident), Marxism started out in Germany, Nazism started out in Germany, modern Progressivism started out in Germany (Frankfurt school)... yeah, for some reason, Germany has a tendency to be a breeding...
