Did you even read the evidence in the articles that prove you are mistaken?

Some would argue that the Greek New Testament and the writings of Lorenzo Valla sparked both Renaissance and Reformation, but your smugness disallows meaningful debate.

I am neither smug, not turned off by a debate.

Offer me more then just a sentence of what you have and we can talk about it.

It is very easy to say some claim this or claim that, but until I see the evidence you have for such conjecture, I cannot even begin to debate it.

Look at the way muawiyah offered on Part I in comment #8 his opinion that he believes the Protestant Reformation started with Rene of Anjou's rug trade with the Turks.

He offers a good reasoned argument that gives me much more information then a sentence, thus allowing me to actually look into his claim. Then I can come back with a reasonable reply that will set us off on a healthy debate where we respect each other and learn from each other.

If there is any smugness it comes from you, because you automatically claim I am closed to debate.
