Catholic or not, "Donation" has to do with governmental interference.

**It was one of many corruptions which had set in at the time.”** So Luther fought by posting his gripes, then walking away, getting married, and starting his own church which bears his name. He figured the Jews would take his side, and when they didn't, he suddenly came up with a systematic, anti-Semitic set of steps to get the Jews out of his way. Sound like someone in fairly recent history? Think about that next time the Spanish Inquisition gets dusted off.

Gripes, really?

Luther stated "That heretics be burned is against the will of the Spirit."

Pope Leo X disagreed in a Papal Bull and thought burning heretics was a great idea.

So do you support burning heretics, do you think burning heretics is something trivial, or do you agree with Luther.

I thought we could all agree that burning heretics is a bad idea, but you can still find Catholics today that share Pope Leo X's opinion.
