This podcast is a tier above the rest, but I think it’s an interesting dynamic. Both are master historians with similar humor, but they sort of check each other and constantly bounce their perspectives off of each other. It’s amazing.

I was born in 1949 in the middle of the United States into a cultural (Polish/Slavic) Roman Catholic family. Amazingly, my life and my family's life resemble Medieval Europe at the time of Luther, despite Protestant America and Modernity. Luther's most direct nemesis, Erasmus, was the humanist [man of great education] and intellectual assassin hired by the then Pope to bring an [academic] end to Martin Luther. In his response to Erasmus, Luther wrote: "Now, my good Erasmus, I entreat you for Christ's sake to keep your promise at last. You promised that you would yield to him who taught better than yourself. Lay aside respect of persons! I acknowledge that you are a great man, adorned with many of God's noblest gifts--wit, learning and an almost miraculous eloquence, to say nothing of the rest; whereas I have and am nothing, save that I would glory in being a Christian. "Moreover, I give you hearty praise and commendation on this further account--that you alone, in contrast with all others, have attacked the real thing, that is, the essential issue. You have not wearied me with those extraneous issues about the Papacy, purgatory, indulgences and such like--trifles, rather than issues--in respect of which almost all to date have sought my blood (though without success); you, and you alone, have seen the hinge on which all turns, and aimed for the vital spot." Bondage of the Will How tragic that so many historians are unaware of the "vital spot" upon which the Reformation emerged.

Have been listening to these podcasts for months. Finally broke down and subscribed. But was frustrated in finding topics of particular interest in the early days. But, at last I discovered so many of those are on KZbin! It helps comprehension to see the lads, but now I’m finding it difficult to return to Tom’s epic erudite book Dominion. I’m having such fun reviewing favorite episodes and finding older ones so easily available that I’m finding it difficult to do much else. I’ve been a Tom Holland fan for years, and the repartee between he and Dominic makes history so much more engaging and fascinating. I’ve always found it so and these two are still a revelation. Tom’s journey from classics to crediting Christianity has been similar to my own. But he has illuminated the history of Christianity in a way that made it fresh and so much more interesting than I’ve ever found it before.

Would you say that Arius and Pelagius and Hus and Calvin and Wycliffe all the rest of the heretics were simply cutting into Rome’s bottom line?

about a century later the borders were consolidated. The astonishing thing is that all former Roman regions in the end stayed catholic and all the others became Protestant, spreading even into Skandinavia. The border line is more or less were the limes has been. Cologne catholic, the Rhineland catholic, Lower Saxony protestant, the core of Bavaria catholic, Frankonia protestant, Austria catholic, the West of Hungary catholic, the East of Hungary protestant, Belgium catholic, the Netherlands protestant, and so on. So all theology aside, there is some deeper cultural layer to the whole issue. It was not so much about which argument was right or wrong, but how it resonated with the people and their cultural background. All the vicious propaganda against "Roma" (he meant the pope, but he wrote Rome) didn't resonate with people who thought: "Rome? Aren't we the Romans?". Today there exists the term "phantom borders" in social science and human geography. And this is an example of such a phantom border popping up a thousand years after its existance.

@@rafalrocks that's true, Poland is a special case. But they needed allies against the Ottomans and no support would come from the Protestant side, while the Pope was sending money to pay for mercenaries and arranged alliances with the Habsburgs, Venice and Spain. In the bilingual regions the confession also had a national component. If the Poles in Silisia and other places would have also become Protestant, like the local Germans, they would have sat in one church together and than they would have probably gotten assimilated to become German as well. That's how being Catholic became part of the national identity of the Poles, like for the Irish in Ireland.

The last one could be really tough on a teen age boy with exploding hormones!! All sins could be erased through confession and penance.

@droppeddogs that is the final judgement. Purgatory is the belief that people can work off the guilt before judgement. That's why indulgences were such an abominable practice, to suggest that paying them could buy the guilt of sin of the dead. Scripture also says that man is appointed to die once and then be judged. Unless we are clothed in the imputed righteousness of Christ, we will be judged by our own works and are doomed. The sacrifice of Jesus was sufficient, and all those who believe by faith (which itself is a gift of God, so that none may boast) will not perish but have eternal life, because on the day of judgement we will be found sinless because we are clothed in the righteousness of Christ. His blood washes us clean. Nothing we do will ever save us. There is only one name by which man may be saved - Christ Jesus.

Some very astute observations gentlemen, and quite enjoyable. The Catholic Church has regrettably jettisoned the notion of purgatory these days. Someone once described purgatory as being akin to the film 'Groundhog Day', where you are condemned to live the same day over and over until you shed your ego and start relating from the heart, thus acquiring the perfection of soul needed to enter heaven. I find that comparison oddly satisfying.

In the case of Hussites, for instance, it could be easily argued that they were in fact proto-Reformers. Hus was a follower of Wycliffe and the Lollards in England who preceded Luther by quite some time but had many of the same objections and rejected several of the sacraments, believed in consubstantiation, etc. Hus was an early Reformer, much like Luther; a pre-Luther if you will. From a Catholic perspective, ALL Protestants are simply heretics, not substantively different from Arius or Pelagius

The Lord Jesus Christ, St Paul in his epistles (you have 'quote mined' here), the epistle of St James, Book of Revelation et al ALL make clear we are saved by Faith AND works. 'Saved by Faith alone' is a dangerous heresy invented 500 hundred odd years ago.

Hmm who really takes the universe for granted? Some of us do due diligence and read/watch the evidence. As a lapsed Catholic I never believed the bread and wine of the Mass was body and blood. It’s a sentiment and something to celebrate/take seriously/consider deeply. Not everyone is completely empty inside or uncaring of facts. Far from that.

The year, the people, and belief system do not matter. All are human, all is barbarity. Splitting hairs about it can be noble though. Our priests and pastors touch children to this day. Law enforcement commits as much senseless and egregious crime as the general public. Paupers exchange time and freedom for imagined and perceived slights against the state. It might be 1445 in the Muslim world, but it's only 2024 in the West. We've a long, long way to go before we cease to be apex predators and our own favorite prey, no matter the nation or religion.

@@subcitizen2012 the quickest and easiest way to understand any religious and/or ideological philosophy, is to go to ‘the book and the man’. Islam has a very different book, and man, to that of Christianity. The latter has more in common with Liberalism. Probably, in no small part, due to the presence of Christianity in the hearts and minds of the Nations that developed it. Especially the people who wrote the books that formed the basis for what we know as Liberalism, today. However, that very same Liberalism, and all it’s strains, offshoots and manifestations, like Liberal Democracy, are anathema to the former, which bears more resemblance to fascist ideology, to my mind, after somewhat in depth study, but far from complete.

Atheist here. So i am quite neutral about most faith based arguments. For one, when there's a war there's someone paying for it. Regions like Iraq or Syria have terrible things going on because really rich, powerful dudes decided it was worth killing for. Now, as far as a comparison goes, I've read a demographic theory, and like all demographic theories it should be taken with a grain of salt. Whenever a population has too many young men and not enough jobs, you'll end up seeing conflict. As long as you keep them engaged and employed, things won't turn too violent.

I am not a practising Christian, like most Scots of my youth, I had a low key Christian upbringing in the Church of Scotland, the reformed church, that I suppose, makes me a Presbyterian, if only culturally in my case. The key religious reformer in Scotland however, was not Luther but John Knox via the French theologian John Calvin. Not a lot of people know that! 🤪

When you are talking about the puritanical nature of Prodestantism and its effect on the Western world, I think you also need to reflect on its effect on the political left. The present woke movement has aspects of religious puritanism, as does feminism and revolutionary communism. The idea that there is a righteous way and any opponents are heretics.

A lot of people had problems with the church. Others had put out English and German translations of the Bible to make it more accessible. The Church selling indulgences did irk him to no small degree, and he did nail those theses. He was lucky in one way that the writings spread far and wide due to the printing press. Many more people took up the ideas, and it became quite impossible to put it out. Its worth remembering that most of the top leadership of the church was made up of the sons of nobles. They were trying to extract whatever value they could from the people for their own coffers. Pope Leo X was born a Medici and made a priest at age 40 and the Pope the very next day. He wanted to enjoy the papacy. Had someone else been elected things would have gone slightly differently, but the whole system needed reform quite badly.

I want to make a comment about Islam. The relentless military activities of the Ottomans was required by Islamic law. "The jurists of classical Islam reached the conclusion that Islam requires relentless military action against non-believing peoples unless a treaty exists with them" (Abdal Hakim Murad, University of Cambridge). The violent expansion of muslims throughout the middle ages is not an aberration; its part of Islamic law.

When President Reagan was negotiating the end othe USSR it's member nation-states said that they would) after 70 years of Socialism. return to being patriotic Christian, modern (not post-modern) nation-states. They have all done so. Poland, Hungary, etc. Russia under Putin built a Cathedral in Moscow, which was opened and dedicated in 2019. In addition Putin pushed for the opening of 30,000 parish churches, throughout Russia. If "the West is serious about defending humanity against Communism then it should be allied with former USSR Nation-states against Communist China. However, Western Leaders appear to be working towards a secular, planned World government brought in under the title Great Reset.and without any democratic explanation to the people to enable them to vote on it.
