ESSAY ON: Martin Luther/Reformer or Revolutionary

Number of Pages 4

This research paper: A 4 page research paper that examines the life of Martin Luther. The writer argues that when Martin Luther nailed his 95 theses, which were objections to the practices of the Roman Catholic Church, on the door of the castle church at Wittenberg on October 31, 1517, he had no intention of leaving the church or starting a revolutionary movement. Luther's intention was reform, not revolution. However, his objections to certain points of Christian dogma and specific practices of the Church, such as the sale of indulgences, were so radical to the status quo that he succeeded in unleashing a storm of controversy and, in doing so, set into motion events that once started had revolutionary results. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
