note: I think you mean Martin Luther, not Martin Luther King. Copyright law at the time of Martin Luther King would be unlikely to affect the reformation. ;)
I like your point, but I think it's only partially right. AFAIK current copyright law protects a work for up to 95 years. The Bible was written well over 1000 years before the time of Martin Luther. I still think it's true that copyright law as it currently exists tends to stifle inovation, but this isn't a great example.
