The invention of the printing press is most responsible for preventing the Church from stopping the Protestant Reformation.
The printing press allowed for the rapid dissemination of Reformation ideas, including Martin Luther's 95 Theses and other reformers' writings, which challenged the authority of the Church and spread rapidly among the populace. This greatly facilitated communication and mobilization among reformers and their followers, making it difficult for the Church to counteract the movement effectively.
