There is some bias or weight to the questions as you pose them. You need to check your answers as given in lessons in class and/or through the text (s) mandatory to your course. That said, I would lean toward E in the first one simply because you are there to some extent, and I prefer that over the other choice you have given. The one about the Peasant's rebellion is a little more sticky. Luther did not support the Rebellion, per se, as he believed that there needed to be law and order in the land - even when the authority of those who ruled was in question. The better of the set of responses, as I see it in your list, is, again 'E'.
