What effect did the Reformation have on the beliefs that had existed in the middle ages?
Except for the belief that there was only one acceptable way for a Christian to worship God, no beliefs were changed that I can think of. Science, exploration, mercantilism, and nationalism had already changed many Middle Ages beliefs before the Reformation began, and the power of the Catholic Church was lessened. The Reformation was about getting back to the basics of Christianity, and doing away with the corruption and ceremony which had become associated with it. The Catholics who became Protestants called the Catholics idolaters, and Catholics who remained Catholics called the Protestants heretics. No surprise that this disagreement became violent, but otherwise people stuck to their existing beliefs.

Religion in Maryland in the 1700s was characterized by religious tolerance due to the 1649 Maryland Toleration Act, which allowed for freedom of worship for Christians.
