When the prisoner is exposed directly to the Bible, he will be liberated from knowing only the Roman Catholic teachings, and start to build his own perspective on the…

Throughout To the Christian Nobility of the…

The 95 theses were just 95 things that Martin Luther didn’t like about the church. Martin became a teacher and a believer after going from town to town one day and lighting struck hit a tree then he believed god saved him so he became a believer. I think he wrote the 95 Theses cause he was tired of the church doing what they want to do an not pleasing god like a church is suppose to do. The 95 Theses were bad things that the church did. The way coach glass explains this it seems like the…

The reformation was a period that would significantly alter the role religion played, not only during its occurance, but for many centuries to come. The reformation occured during the 16th Century. It created a schism within the Roman Catholic Church to create different groups of Christians, not connected to the Roman Catholic Church or the Pope. This led to the English establish the Church of England, which is considered the "Middle way" between Catholicism and Calvanism. This was credited to…

During the times of the old Catholic Church, people were caught up in the ways of thinking that they deemed appropriate for the time. These ways were a narrow and negative way of thinking, only promoting the Catholic religion, as the only religion of any importance, which would have meant many members of society, did not feel valued. But as time went on, the world changed but the ways of the Catholic Church did not. Pope Paul the sixth, a significant member of the Vatican II during the 1962 to…

Are women treated fairly and equally with men in the field of science? Throughout the last century, women have had to deal with biases against them. Are women still dealing with this issue?
