500th Anniversary of Martin Luther's 95 Theses
Martin Luther penned his 95 theses five hundred years ago--though there's actually no contemporary historical evidence that he nailed them to the church door in Wittenberg, Germany. The Research on Religion podcast has another episode on Luther and his 95 theses, this one on Luther's historical setting and impact with Emily Fisher Gray. The Pew Forum also has done a survey of American Protestantism 500 years after Luther. The results suggest that Protestants are still fairly split on various ideas including the role of works and the role of the Bible, see here and here.
