Document Summary

Difference between luther and everyone else is the printing press. Created the printing press (moveable type printing press) Allowed people to made distribute things for the public to know. Priest and professor of theology (one of the best at what he does) Considers himself a very good catholic (not out to end the church, but to fix it) Never nailed thesis to the door of the church: mailed copies to leaders of the church. Mai(cid:374) pro(cid:271)le(cid:373) (cid:449)as the pope selli(cid:374)g (cid:862)pardo(cid:374)s(cid:863) out for de(cid:272)eased frie(cid:374)ds a(cid:374)d fa(cid:373)ily. Pope and cardinals denounced luther and kick him out of the church. After original challenge, luther doubles down and starts challenging more problems of the church. Luther"s poi(cid:374)ts: indulgences are false, justification by faith alone, only with faith can you go to heaven, to hell with sacerdotalism (only priests can communicate with god) Luther encourages public education to get more people studying the bible.
