Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Protestant used the printing press to spread their beliefs and ideas across Europe, mainly through pamphlets. A typical example is the Ninety Five Theses by Martin Luther which was nail to the  door of the Wittenberg Church.  Reformers were able to spread out their messages to thousands more across Europe to the point of even making the spread of their idea difficult for the Catholic Church to inhibit the spread.

Writing of their messages in the vernacular was important to the Protestant reformers because they appealed to the people of all works of life such as  clerics,non-clerics and common people.
