Scholars from Saint Anselm College and California Lutheran University provide a balanced and objective presentation of the facts surrounding this very important period of history. On October 31, 1517, Martin Luther, a Catholic priest, nailed to the door of Wittenberg Cathedral in Germany his 95 Theses attacking certain practices of the Roman Catholic Church. When he refused to recant and apologize, the church excommunicated him, and he went into hiding in fear for his life. This simple act started one of the most profound social movements of history, the Reformation. Although Luther did not foresee it, and even though he attempted to calm the reaction of his followers, he started a revolution that pitted Protestants against Catholics, resulting in wars throughout Europe that lasted approximately 100 years and caused the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. This enlightening video explores the background of the Roman Catholic Church and the causes of social and religious unrest. This programme, looks at how the reformation lead to many wars of religion in Europe including the civil war in Germany. Many groups that fought in the wars were doing so in an attempting to gain political power. The Reformation. Part 10\n
