If God started the protestant reformation ?

[Adamski]

Then should God be a God of chaos

and if God is a god of chaos shouldn’t gravity be false ?

and nature be irratic such as one tree needs water at the roots and the same species gets water from it leaves and should be planted upside down?

Human beings, having free will, started the reformation.

I do think that “God” started the reformation.

But I don’t quite understand the rest that you say…

Why would that mean that God is a God of chaos? The Reformation could be considered a search for the truth. And, of course, the world has been in chaos since Day One, so…if we are going to say God is a God of Chaos, a lot of what has happened so far over the last few billion years would support that.

But if God is about chaos, why would that mean gravity is false?
And the rest of what you say?

.

Perhaps the OP means by chaos is that since the Reformation we now have 30,000 different protestant churches whereas before then we had basically One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church so therein lies the “chaos” . If Christ set up His church is it not really rational to think that after 1,500 years after He started this Church He would desire the forming of 30,000 churches each enspousing a different authority, teaching rather the opposite of this chaos would be that He indeed formed His Church to be one authoritative Church…

Not sure about the gravity issue though…

The logical fallacies here are immense

Why should anyone risk such an endeavour against what God has already provided?

It is clear from the Bible that Jesus established His Church on His Supreme Vicar, St Peter.

All four promises to Peter alone:

“You are Peter and on this rock I will build My Church.” (Mt 16:18)
“The gates of hell will not prevail against it.”(Mt 16:18)
“I will give you the keys of the Kingdom of heaven." ( Mt 16:19)
“Whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven.” (Mt 16:19) [Later, to the Twelve].

**Sole authority: **
“Strengthen your brethren.” (Lk 22:32)
“Feed My sheep.”(Jn 21:17).
Jesus warned dissenters: “if he refuses to hear even the Church let him be like the heathen and a publican.” (Mt 18:17).

St. Paul says also, “through the Church the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places (Eph 3:10).” The Church teaches even the angels! This is with the authority of Christ!

Quite obviously Christ cannot teach error and has protected His Church, through His chosen Supreme Vicar, from teaching error on faith and morals – binding and loosing.
