^ didn't know it was possible for users to delete stuff?

also could we move these martin luther threads to the depth studies area?

i did martin luther as well, and i find it hard to believe there's no info on the way he influenced protestant religions.

i'm assuming you have the info on the reformation and how the churches split and how "protestantism" came to rise...or was it lutheranism? cant remember, did this a while back.

if you havent got that much down, thats the first step

in answer to your question, think/research up a couple of things:

- research lutheranism and the way it has developed over history. luther obviously had a direct impact on its formation, but down the line i think some of the characteristics it developed werent directly what luther himself put down.

- also remember that the various protestant denominations that came around later might not have been directly influenced by luther, but just the fact that luther gave rise to the whole protestantism denomination itself means that indirectly, the ideas he gave rise to have been adopted by those smaller offbranches of protestantism. (does that make sense?) there isn't always a direct link...(?)

please correct me where i'm wrong
