You make Lutherans out to be Islamists or something!

More precisely, the Wikipedia editors do.

It’s not really credible to accuse others of not having “facts” for merely pointing out that Wikipedia has no value as a source.

I don’t know anything about Lutherans, but I do know a fair bit about Martin Luther’s writings and how Hitler used them as his inspiration and a foundation for the murder of millions of Jewish people, given Luther detailed the plan for the Final Solution in 1543 CE and Hitler finally acted upon it:

“You make Lutherans out to be Islamists or something!”

Well, on reading Luther’s own words, he does seem rather Islamist (same source):

“I ask that our rulers who have Jewish subjects exercise a sharp mercy toward these wretched people, as suggested above . . .like a good physician who, when gangrene has set in, proceeds without mercy to cut, saw, and burn flesh, veins, bone, and marrow . . . Burn down their synagogues, forbid all that I enumerated earlier, force them to work, and deal harshly with them . . . slaying three thousand lest the whole people perish . . . If this does not help we must drive them out like mad dogs . .. “

Do Lutherans accept his words? You tell me.

I know nothing about Lutherans, except that they are apparently named after Luther.
