My best friend is a recent convert to Lutheranism (she previously was not a practicing christian)
So now I’m getting the Lutheran anti-catholic message of course.
I am curious about finding links/articles/books about the whole showdown between Luther and the Church.
Specifically - his 95 theses and the Church’s response to them (did the church respond to each and every one? Were any of them correct? Which ones were heretical?)
I also read there was a debate between Luther and a Cardinal - is there documentation of this event?
Also - is there a way to read the document in which the pope officially excommunicated Luther?
Lastly…am I right in my understanding that when indulgences used to be granted for a certain number of days…didn’t these “days” refer to days of penance?
Most people think they refer to days spent in purgatory.
