Martin Luther

What did Martin Luther say in his 95 Theses paper that caused the Reformation?

First, it isn’t historically accurate to say that Luther’s 95 Theses “caused the Reformation.” When written, it was an invitation for a debate among academics about indulgences. The official title of his document was: “Disputation on the Power and Efficacy of Indulgences.” The debate never took place because the document was translated from Latin to German, and when widely distributed, it caused an uproar.

I think the best we can say about his 95 Theses is that it questioned many practices in medieval Christianity and knocked down some of the pillars that supported them.
