Why is Martin Luthers single action in Wittenberg considered such a pivotal moment in Western Civilization?
The Catholic Church controlled the world and the European kings. Luther's actions was a direct challenge to this authority. This changed the thinking of people that they could have free will concerning religion. He challenged the church for selling indulgences and that salvation came not from fear but faith. He wanted his 95 points to start a discussion and to show that the indulgences as corrupting people's faith. Aided by the printing press copies of his ninety-five theses spread throughout Germany within 2 weeks and Europe in 2 months. The church wanted him to recant his theses, but he stated he would not recant unless scripture proved him wrong and that the pope didn't have the authority to interpret scripture. This was against a 1,000 years of teaching that the pope was the only person who could interpret scripture and that man needed the church to communicate with God. Effectively, Luther had created a world where man could communicate with God without the church and began the movement towards a new type of church as well as the freedom of religion and choice.
