When the Bible was translated into home country languages, it became obvious the crimes the Church was foisting upon its parishioners.

Bibles in the vernacular long predated the "reformation". To deny so is indicative of your ignorance on the topic which is further demonstrated by the rest of the nonsense you have posted.

Catholics had their own Bibles in Latin or Greek and any others were burned and the translators killed. That just shows your ignorance on the subject. Even to have anyone but a church official teach the Bible was forbidden. Otherwise how could they get the peons to buy indulgences and such other nonsense.

Any knowledge at all would show that is what the Reformation was based on. Luther found out by reading the text that he was saved by grace and not by the church.
