source:
"we see there is no gold, and almost no silver in our German land. what little there is left is taken away by the church in Rome. Would you know, dear German, what they do with our money? it does not lie idle! Leo the Tenth gives part to his nephews, relatives, cardinals, secretaries, and other officials. they build marble homes. they have precious stones, are clothed in purple and fine linen, and live in luxury. in short, a vast number of the worst of men are supported in Rome in idle life by means of our money."

How does tha source support Luther's attack on the church. what is the author of source trying to do?


i really need help. thanx
