But you felt the need to post your "Yawn" comment anyway? Here's a tip...if you don't want to read what another Freeper posts, skip reading it. Just be aware that what you presume is "old anti-Catholic bigotry" is, in fact, the truth and your ignoring of it, continuing to post as if no one ever told you differently, makes you appear to be the ignorant one, over and over again.
As for your Luther quote, it is quite insipid to quote a man (out of context) to bolster ones point but then to disparage and condemn him with the next breath. It's dishonest and bigoted.
Let me put it another way. I get tired of reading cut and paste articles from Wikipedia I also never put down Luther.
He was a good man who wanted changes made in the Church and they were made. He never wanted the Church to break apart. He always said the authority for the Church was Rome. He always believed in the “real presence” at the Eucharist. He would have never wanted a religion called Lutheran and most certainly would never wanted 35,000 religious demoninations, with no central authority, setting their doctrine by a show of hands instead of the word of God. Luther weeps at what PROTESTants have done to God’s Pilgrim Church on Earth. I’ve always wondered what are they still protesting 600 years after the reformation.
