How to Commemorate the Penning of Luther’s 95 Theses

[SecularMotion]

In October 1517, Martin Luther penned his famous and church-shaking 95 Theses in Wittenberg, Germany. By Oct. 31, the list was complete and a copy was delivered to archbishop Albert of Mainz, or nailed to the thick oak door of the Castle Church of Wittenberg, depending on which version you wish to accept (probably both happened).

The 95 Theses were written in Latin and kick-started the Protestant Reformation into existence (although Luther’s primary goal was to reform the Catholic Church of many abuses such as nepotism, simony, usury, the sale of indulgences and the authority of the Pope).

In just a few short years the 500th Anniversary of the 95 Theses will take place. Will the church in America be ready or even take notice of this great event?

1. I know several Episcopal parishes celebrate Reformation Sunday.

Mine doesn't but I guess after 500 years we should mark the occasion.

2. Go up to random doors in Germany and stick stuff on them

Sorry, just kidding.

3. Perhaps we ought to wait until 1543

and then we can consider Luther in light of the 500th anniversary of the publication of On the Jews and Their Lies.

Bad Luther! Bad!
