"He rejected books from the BIBLE. "

Narses, the Catholic Church also rejected books from the Bible. The Catholic Bible does not contain all the books originally in the Septuagint translation of the Hebrew Bible. If you are going to condemn Luther for "rejecting" books from the Bible, you should consider the fact that the Catholic Church did exactly the same thing. Perhaps Luther was merely following the lead of the Catholic church.

The Catholic Church defined the Bible Rokke. Luther, as an individual, tried to redefine it. He also defended BIGAMY. Hold him up as an ICON if you want, but be prepared to embrace all of him if you do.
