Reformation and Counter Reformation Views of the Church Martin Luther, though he was vital in bringing reform to the many travesties of the Church, created a divided within the Catholic Church based on a radical understanding and interpretation of what “church” was. Luther believed that the Catholic Church was the “historical church” which has existed in time but not necessarily always with God. It was filled with corrupt clergy, especially the pope, who were godless men, whose positions were…

surfing has become considerably more marketable. However, at one point in time, this did not seem like it would ever be possible. In the 1960’s there was a vast expansion of surf culture, but before that surfing was not seen as a popular activity.
