Making Slaves of Freed Men
NB: The Reformation was likely inevitable, with or without Luther, when one considers the financial and ethical corruption in the Church and the reality of the printing press. The official Church certainly did Christianity no favors at the time and in the years preceding. At the same time, Luther didn’t exactly wrap himself in noble cloth either. This post will examine one of Luther’s more egregious acts.
As usual, the post is about the history, not about the theology. That I personally find sympathy with certain of the Church’s positions and at the same time certain of Luther’s is irrelevant, other than to suggest, perhaps, that I am a confused Christian.
