Yeah, the Lutherans were the first split from Catholicism and sort of what I would say would be the start of protestantism. Not that Martin Luther initially wanted that, but he wanted a return to basics and a simpler less controlling version of what the church had slowly become. (95? Thesis and what not… maybe it was 99 can’t recall)
Now we have thousands of denominations of Christians, and they all do their own versions of how they believe things should be. Haven’t studied the historys of religion in a long time, it’s crazy to think about how much I’m sure things have changed and I’ve distorted in my brain throughout time when I reflect on the fact that it has been more than 15 years since the last real class I would have taken. Getting older is strange.
Some day it’d be nice to start studying history more again.
