Not quite sure, but I believe he's referring to Anabaptist here

LOL. More unattributed excerpts of unsourced snippets.

If you know your Luther, it's well known - from his "Against the Peasants". Also known as "Against the Murderous, Thieving Hordes of Peasants". It is in response to the Twelve Articles of the Christian Union, which was being widely distributed throughout Germany.

The point in both Calvin's and Luther's case is that by their actions they did not object to man having authority over scripture, so long as it was them.
