What Was Luther's Role In The Protestant Reformation

It is important to note Luther was also against the church having political control and it is exhibited in the Protestant Reformation. The Protestant Reformation was not solely about decreasing the Catholic Church's control over people's salvation, but it also wanted to separate the church and the state. The Catholic Church was a great political machine and it the Pope was sometimes more powerful the kings. This is very important when it comes to the set up of the United States. The Founders' of the United States did not want the church to make political decisions like the church did in Europe. When the Founding Father's of the United State was creating the U.S Constitution they put a clause in it to allow 'Freedom of Religion'. People in the United States practice their religious believes in their own way, with out fear of the state prosecuting them from doing such.
