In addition to an interest in religious reform, the princes of germany supported martin luther’s ideas for

a. cultural and social reasons. b. political and economic reasons. c. ethical and philosophical reasons. d. educational and intellectual reasons.

The correct option is: "D. educational and intellectual reasons."

Martin Luther was a theologian and Augustinian catholic friar who started and promoted religious reform in Germany and whose teachings were inspired by the Protestant Reformation and the theological and cultural doctrine called Lutheranism. Luther exhorted the Christian church to return to the original teachings of the Bible, which produced a restructuring of the Christian churches in Europe. The reaction of the Catholic Church to the Protestant reform was the Counter-Reformation. His contributions to Western civilization extend beyond the religious realm, as his translations of the Bible helped develop a standard version of the German language and became a model in the art of translation. His marriage with Catalina de Bora, on June 13, 1525, initiated a movement of support for priestly marriage within many Christian currents.
