(B) is incomplete.
Ignoring (B) I would say (D) is the best.

Agree with D
A) wrong tense
B) missing information about Europe here
C) convoluted past perfect tense
E) "of the European influrence of the Catholic Church" is convoluted. Furthermore, double use of "of" is almost always wrong.

I will go with D, the part in colour is just fragments. So "In the early fourteenth centuruy europe was Catholic and the Church influrenced virtually every phase of human life.
This is consice, correct tense and better then all other answers
