In a bit of hyperbole, This day in history writes: On October 31 in 1517, the priest and scholar Martin Luther approaches the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg, Germany, and nails a piece of paper to it containing the 95 revolutionary opinions that would begin the Protestant Reformation. You may read them at the link below, but be prepared, they are neither revolutionary nor did they start the protestant revolt, they were very Catholic theses for the most part.

What did martin Luther help start when he nailed his 95 theses to the door of the church in wittenberg?
Around October 31, 1517, Martin Luther nailed his Ninety-five Theses to the church door in Wittenburg, Germany. In those days, it was common practice to nail (or tack, more likely) public documents to the church door for all to see. Shortly after Luther nailed that document to the church doors, several printers took it, translated it into German (it was originally written in Latin for only the church officers to be able to read), printed and distributed a great number of copies. It was thus circulated around Germany, and sent to the pope.By tradition, Luther nailed his Ninety-five Theses to the door of All Saints' Church in Wittenberg on 31 October 1517. It is likely that this is merely folklore based on an account by Philipp Melanchthon who was not even in Wittenberg at the time.Whether or not they were actually nailed to the door of the church as an invitation for discussion, the Latin Theseswere printed in several locations in Germany in 1517 and subsequently translated into German in January 1518.
