The world could use spirit like this today
The world was really rotten in the early 1500's.There was this fellow who was just a teacher and scholarwho saw all this and said, I have to say something,this is just too dirty and rotten.If there had been no Luther , one doubts that there would be a western European culture as the Turks were knocking hard at Germany and the lower part of Europe.So Turkish Islam may have taken over Europe except for Luther's reformation.People don't fight well for the corruption that was Rome at this time.The picture points out that Luther was in no way a democratic or people's person: peasants were slaughtered when they revolted and he stood by the people who did that.Empires of church and state rise and fail, but men continue.
