Question

Please help me out! I will seriously give 100 points and Brainliest (when given the opportunity) Imagine you will be giving a speech in front of the pope just before the start of the Protestant Reformation. Your speech is meant to warn him about the challenges that will soon confront the Roman Catholic Church. Your speech should explain which of the Reformation's causes you think the church has control over and which it doesn't. It should also offer advice on how to handle the issues the Catholic Church does have control over. Your advice should be supported by actual historical events from before, during, and even after the Protestant Reformation.

These two will not be easy to control, or even possible, but try we must.
