Answer 30

Martin Luther, born in 1483 in Eisleben, Germany, was a key figure in the Protestant Reformation. A monk and theologian, he became critical of the Catholic Church’s practices, especially the sale of indulgences. In 1517, he nailed his “95 Theses” to a church door in Wittenberg, challenging church doctrines and sparking widespread debate. Luther’s refusal to recant his views led to his excommunication by Pope Leo X in 1521. Despite this, his writings and teachings continued to spread, profoundly influencing Christianity and leading to the formation of various Protestant denominations. Luther died in 1546, leaving a lasting impact on religious history.
