What’s so happy about it?

I prefer to think of it as Deformation Day.

And so began the fall of Western Civilization.

Happy Reformation Day to the 30,000 plus and counting Protestant Churches.

Hey, Reformation Day is one of the best things that ever happened to the Catholic Church, in my opinion. I think the RC is far better today than it was in centuries past.

Patrick,
Is this related somehow to your LEGO flamethrower post?

Yeesh, lighten up folks…
I thought that’s what we were doing.

Don’t forget that the Reformation led to the flourishing of democratic ideas. Something not even Luther had in mind and are promoted on this website daily
If it wasn’t for the Reformation we would all be surfs living under despot kings. Freedom of conscience in matters of faith is the basis for all other freedoms.

It’s not so much that the bloody theses were that annoying.
It is the drunken, German silliness that followed (read post Diet of Worms theology).
At least the 95 were written in Latin.

Um…the reformation didn’t introduce democracy. Given the distinct take on religion that the Episcopalians took it can’t even be argued that it effected the outcome for our end of the Western world much at all.
The German’s, Dutch, and English all had proto-democratic ideas long before the reformation. It might have hastened things a bit, but it didn’t *cause* a democratic West.
