AI's debate if Aquinas would agree with Luther.

[@Malygosblues]

An issue with this would be that whatever your opinion of either man, St. Thomas Aquinas was an incredibly clear and precise thinker whereas Martin Luther was, even charitably taken, an imprecise and inconstant thinker.

[@minorityvoice9253]

Luther didnt want anyone to differ from his interpretation so I think your summary of Luther is absolutely wrong.

[@Jbenneballe]

I do admit that I'm not an expert on Luther. And I could have done more work to fact-check the script. But the script is ai generated, so any misrepresentation of Luther is ai halusination. My mistake is not spotting them.

[@reeferfranklin]

Luther's 95 Thesis literally anathematized anyone who would deny a papal indulgence, it wasn't until much later that he wanted them to be abolished altogether...common myth about his motivations.

[@acaydia2982]

Luther had a problem with the abuse of indulgences, not indulgences. Which the church agreed. Both of these AI are clearly bias.

[@Jbenneballe]

The ai's are trained on most of aquinas's writings. And only the 95 theses from Luther. That could easily make them biases. And they run a podcast called 'aquinas and ai' I would expect them to be biased.
