Answer:

The (Catholic) Counter Reformation effected the Reformation because it brought more people to the Catholic Church as a result of the Catholic Churches answer to the many people that were converting from Christianity to Protestantism. The main person who was mad and confronting the Church was Martin Luther. He was the person to write the 95 thesis and post them on the doors of a church to let people know that the Church was doing wrong things. Luther was mad because the Church was being bribed and they were selling indulgences (Pardons). The main person that was selling indulgences in the Church was Johann Tetzel.
