| | Pope Pius X - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Pius X's feast day was changed from 3 September to 21 August on 14 February 1969 by Pope Paul VI (1963–78) as an obligatory memorial to the sanctity of Pius X in the universal calendar. |  | | In his papacy, Pius X worked to increase devotion in the lives of the clergy and laity, particularly in the Divine Office and the Holy Mass. |  | | The Blessed Pius X's feast day was established as 3 September. |

| | Pope Leo X |
 | | The most important occurrence of Leo's pontificate and that of gravest consequence to the Church was the Reformation, which began in 1517. |  | | The pope wished at first to remain neutral but such a course would have isolated him, so he decided to be faithful to the policy of his predecessors and sought accordingly to oppose the designs of France, but in doing so, to avoid severity. |  | | The advantage to the Church and the pope of such a great sacrifice was that France, hitherto schismatical in attitude, now stood firmly bound to the Holy See, which thus turned aside the danger of complete estrangement. |

| | Pope Leo X |
 | | Leo treated the Uniate Greeks with great loyalty, and by bull of the 18th of May 1521 forbade Latin clergy to celebrate mass in Greek churches and Latin bishops to ordain Greek clergy. |  | | The pope, after careful consideration, conferred on the king of England the title "Defender of the Faith" by bull of the 11th of October 1521. |  | | Destined from his birth for the church, he received the tonsure at the age of seven and was soon loaded with rich benefices and preferments. |

 | | Leo viewed Luther as merely another heretic whose teachings would lead some of the faithful astray but that, as had happened in the past, the true religion would triumph in time. |  | | Leo was lavish in his spending not only of the church's money but also of his own. |  | | In December 1521 Leo X died suddenly, leaving behind him political turmoil in Italy and religious turmoil spreading across northern Europe. |

| | Pope Leo X |
 | | Leo was not active theologically and did not encourage reforms necessary to the church at the beginning of the Protestant Reformation. |  | | Although the church already had a tradition of extravagence, Leo created great animosity between the church and the reformers, such as Martin Luther. |  | | His lack of ability to reform the church from within created a climate into which the Reformation could grow. |

| | EIPS - The Resurrection of Indulgences or Is Tetzel really dead? |
 | | The fact that the present Pope has just announced the revival of the false doctrine of indulgences proves that the spirit of Tetzel, far from dying out, merely slumbered on, unawakened by the enlightenment of the sixteenth century. |  | | With the Millennium on the horizon, the Pope is attempting to re-instate the spiritual darkness of the Middle Ages! |  | | It was the major factor in the gathering storm that instigated Luther's revolt against the corrupt pecuniary practices of the Roman Church and led to the victory of the Reformation. |

 | | While Popes and cardinals fell into sin, Lorenzo was a stickler for the commandments, especially the sixth and ninth for his devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary prompted his insistence on purity for his son's life. |  | | But sadly rather than strengthening the Church his inexperience as a ruler and lack of spiritual leadership would prove to be his achilles heel that would bring many in the Church crumbling, unable to cope with the growing dissension that was soon to erupt in total revolt during the bloody Protestant Reformation. |  | | This 217th successor of Peter was pivotal in the causes and effects of the Protestant Reformation and, sadly, contributed in a very negative way to the mass exodus of so many from the Church during his eight year papacy. |

| | Leo X Condemns Martin Luther |
 | | It is instructive to note the nature of the time and the personality of the Pope at the beginning of the long-overdue Reformation, since it was Christ who said, "He without sin among you, cast the first stone" (John 8:7), and it was Christ's Vicar casting stones at Luther. |  | | His father got him into the priesthood at age 7; he was a cardinal at 13; he became Pope at age 37. |  | | In Rome, justice still exhibited its medieval brutality: for example, a Jew who had sex with a Christian woman was castrated and forced to carry his testicles through the streets on a pole. |

 | | Leo X is considered the only Pope who has bestowed his own name upon his age, and one of the few whose original extraction has corresponded in some measure with the splendour of the pontifical dignity. |  | | The Pope died in 1521, and was buried in Santa Maria sopra Minerva. |  | | Leo X, born Giovanni di Lorenzo de' Medici (Florence, 11 December 1475 – 1 December 1521, Rome), Pope from 1513 to his death, is known primarily for his failure to stem the Protestant Reformation, which began during his reign when Martin Luther (1483–1546) first accused the Roman Catholic Church of corruption. |

 | | The rest of Leo's life was a series of military treaties and alliances when he should have been correcting the religious turmoil that resulted from his own excesses and lack of focus. |  | | The Church at Rome was badly in need of ecclesiastical reform before Pope Leo X and these new deceptive money-making schemes were the proverbial "straw that broke the camel's back." Luther responded by posting his ninety-five arguments for reform. |  | | The word Protestant comes not from Luther but from the "protesting" of these German princes to the Diet of Speyer in 1529, which sought to impose limits on the new religion and increase toleration for Catholicism. |
