By the end of the 15th century, the Catholic Church had well established its authority in Europe, the ties with economic, social, and political power lead to a grasp on modern life. Up until this point, no one dared to question the teachings of the Church. On October 31, 1517, Martin Luther posted his 95 theses on the Wittenberg’s All Saints Church door proclaiming his views about the absurdity that is buying indulgences to exonerate sin (Cole, 343). The radical act of placing ideas that…

Benjamin Franklin once said "He that cannot obey cannot command." By this, he meant that a good leader should first learn how to follow orders in order to be successful. Perhaps this is how we decide whether or not a person is a good leader, by assessing his or her ability to obey commands. Or maybe it depends on how we define the word "leader." Either way, some people believe that Franklin's quote holds true, but I disagree. I believe that a truly great leader is someone who questions authority…

Tyrus Adame Robert Redmon Engl 1113-006 1 October 2015 "I want to have a great time! It is in my blood." Billy talks along these lines as though to hint at life happiness behind scarred mental anguish. This is a man who was analyzed dead in the back of an ambulance and fell into a state of unconsciousness. Billy is not dishonest when he says he gets a kick out of the chance to have a fabulous time in light of the fact that he is a man experiencing an extreme brain damage because of his…

When Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses to a church door, he demonstrated the power of the printed word in transmitting ideas and allowing for those ideas to become widely known. The clear printed lettering of the printed press was much easier to read than handwriting, and so was more available to a larger amount of people. Those who took Luther’s ideas wanted them to be widespread and so there was another incentive to have multiple copies printed without the fear of having hand copied prints…

The 95 Theses was written by a German monk and professor of theology named Martin Luther in 1517, to challenge the teachings of the Catholic Church and the usefulness of the Pope. Who knew this one man standing up for what he believed in would change the world as they knew it forever. He had always wondered about his faith and didn’t believe he was being told the entire truth. He thought the people were being lied to and didn’t think it was right. He wrote this to show the church that lying to…

Reformation Reformation was very significant in Europe because without it the power the Catholic Church possessed would have only kept getting larger. As in the Renaissance, the Reformation looked back at history for influence. The thinkers of this Age wanted to reinstitute early christianity and its virtue. The Reformation impacted the history of the West greatly. For the very first time Western Europe’s people would be allowed to be a part of a different Christian practices. Martin Luther…

It all started when Henry VIII first heard of Martin Luther’s, a German monk’s Protestant ideas, he wrote a book defending the Catholic Faith. Protestantism is another ‘religion’ to define those against the Catholic Faith. However, later on, King Henry did a massive turnover; going against everything he said he’d do. He replaced the Pope as head of the Church in all throughout England. The Break of Rome happened in the 16th century, when King Henry decided he was going to make a new Christian…
