Yes, religion was a central aspect of life for many people in the 1500s. The Protestant Reformation and Catholic Counter-Reformation were significant movements during this time, shaping the religious landscape in Europe. Most people in Western society were affiliated with either the Catholic Church or a Protestant denomination.
The religious persecution of the 1500s and 1600s was characterized by conflicts between Protestant and Catholic factions, resulting in violence, discrimination, and forced conversions. This period saw the rise of the Spanish Inquisition, witch hunts, and the persecution of religious minorities such as the Huguenots and Puritans. The Peace of Westphalia in 1648 marked a turning point, establishing the principle of religious tolerance among European states.
The religious protest reform movement that split the church in the 1500s was the Protestant Reformation. It was sparked by figures like Martin Luther, who challenged the teachings and practices of the Roman Catholic Church, leading to a division between those who followed the newly emerging Protestant denominations and those who remained loyal to the Catholic Church.
In the 1500s, the majority of people belonged to the Catholic branch of Christianity in Europe. This was a time when the Catholic Church held significant power and influence over religious practices and beliefs in many parts of the world.
Religious rites are typically performed by religious leaders, priests, shamans, or designated individuals within a particular faith community. These individuals are trained and authorized to conduct ceremonies and rituals as part of the religious tradition.
Akbar implemented a policy of religious tolerance known as Sulh-e-kul, promoting dialogue among different faiths in the mid-1500s. In contrast, later Mughal emperors like Aurangzeb in the late 1600s favored a more orthodox Islamic approach, instituting policies that discriminated against non-Muslims and led to the decline of religious harmony in the empire.
The Protestant sects.
Some complaints that people had about the Catholic Church in the 1500s were some reformers thought priests and bishops weren't very religious anymore. They claimed that many priests didn't even know basic church teachings. Others felt that the pope was too involved in politics, neglecting his religious duties. These people found it hard to see their pope as their spiritual leader.

There were several eclipses during the 1500s. By this time, there was science showing what an eclipse was and why it was caused, but the spiritual and religious often would interpret them as signs or message from God (or gods). Otherwise, reactions would be more or less the same today, but with more credibility given to the religious arguments and perhaps more general panic/wonder.
Cuz it's his rules :d.
