Pope: Leo X #215 (The Excommunication of Luther)

Popes: Leo X #215, VRP Catholic History.
A scion of the powerful Medici family, Leo X is remembered for his significant patronage of the arts, which contributed to the flourishing of the Renaissance, but also for his indulgence in luxurious living and the extensive use of papal funds. His papacy was marked by the controversy of Martin Luther’s rebellion against the Church, where Luther's heretical ideas—denying the authority of the pope and the necessity of the sacraments—led to his excommunication and the splintering of Christendom.
