What are the long term and short term causes of the protestant reformation?

There were several long term and short term causes of the Protestant reformation. The immediate cause that started the reformation was Martin Luther's act of posting the Ninety-five Theses on the door of the Wittenberg Cathedral in the Holy Roman Empire. Luther was a priest in the Catholic faith in 1517 when he posted the Theses. This caused the end of something going on at the time where people would bribe the church to get into heaven. Some long term causes include many, many religions being formed based on the views of Martin Luther. For example, Anabaptist's, Lutherans and Quakers descended from Luther's ideas and religious beliefs.
