You don't know your history then. The Canon was closed well before Luther was a twinkle in his mother's eye. Luther simply proposed using the Bible as the source of faith and practice.

Of course, if you are into indulgences, worshiping dead people and relics, and following a "do as I say, not as I do" structure, then rock on.

Do you even know what an indulgence is?

Salva -- the canon was closed and it did include the Deutero-Canonical books -- in fact Luther's first German Bible contained them as well. But that is BESIDES the point -- Let's not start fighting Catholic v/s Lutheran when the gaymafia threatens BOTH of us and ever other orthodox Christian. -- let's not let infighting cause us to forget that we have common points to stand shoulder to shoulder and fight against -- we're both anti-abortion, anti-legalisation of deviancy and to have the state be a-religious, not anti-religious.

A reading of history shows how we Christians have been divided fools many times in the past -- Coptic Christians fighting Orthodoxy thinking the Moslems would take away the Imperial hand (and Orthodox Christians allowing those persecutions). Then Catholic Venetians cynically sacking Constantinople in the 13th century, weakening it

Then Calvinists fighting against Catholics and FOR the Caliph in the Siege of Vienna (1683), then Catholics and Anglicans fighting Orthodox and FOR the Caliph in Crimea in the 19th century

Let's not be fools again -- this lesbian "couple" are against what both orthodox Lutherans and Catholics believe in, so let's be united against them
