Dominic: 马丁·路德对世界历史的影响巨大,甚至可能超过其他任何个人。他的宗教改革运动是过去一千年来最具影响力的事件之一,仅次于工业革命。路德是影响世界观的最伟大的宗教领袖之一,他的影响力巨大。路德的宗教改革运动具有传奇色彩,其开端被视为宗教改革的起点。路德宗教改革的故事并非枯燥乏味,而是关乎生死存亡、国家兴亡的惊险故事。路德宗教改革影响深远,深刻改变了欧洲的政治版图,并关系到人们的生死和灵魂归宿。路德反对教会腐败,但也试图阻止人们享乐。新教徒在世界人口中占有相当大的比例,并且新教的影响力仍在持续扩大。路德的宗教改革对西方文化产生了深远的影响,引入了自由探究和道德绝对主义等概念。新教的逻辑终点是无神论,因为推翻迷信最终可能导致摒弃上帝。新教的福音派特质在21世纪依然鲜明,对美国等国家的道德观念产生了深远的影响。美国等国家的世俗进步主义是一种无神论的新教,对其他国家的文化产生了影响。没有路德,就没有宗教改革。 Tom: 路德并非出身于宗教思想的中心地区,而是来自基督教世界的边缘地区萨克森。路德的故乡萨克森位于神圣罗马帝国的边缘,既是边缘地区,也是重要地区。路德于1483年出生在萨克森,当时欧洲正处于动荡时期。路德的成长经历与1950年代或1960年代的英国平民戏剧类似,他与父亲的关系紧张,这可能是他性格的关键。路德的父亲汉斯·鲁德是一个成功的矿业商人,性格强势。路德的父亲汉斯·鲁德是一个事业有成的矿业商人,家境殷实。路德的父亲汉斯·鲁德是一个性格强势、富有侵略性的商人。路德的父母对宗教虔诚,但对路德的管教也十分严厉。路德的父亲希望他成为一名律师,以帮助家族事业。路德在艾森纳赫学习期间,接触到了末世预言家约翰·希尔顿的思想。人们普遍认为中世纪教会腐败不堪,但这种看法是一种新教的视角。人们对中世纪教会的腐败认知是新教视角下的产物,并非客观事实。“宗教改革”这一概念本身就带有新教的视角,而天主教则认为教会的改革是一个持续不断的过程。中世纪教会本身就是一次改革的产物,路德的改革是对其的回应。路德性格复杂,具有好辩、易怒、关注身体和性等特点。在中世纪,人们对信仰的理解与现代人不同,他们更倾向于接受既有的信仰体系。中世纪的神学家类似于现代的流行病学家,他们的权威性来自于启示和科学。

The Reformation, launched in 1517, stands as one of the most convulsive and transformative events of all time, shattering Christendom and dividing Europe for centuries. Its outcome determined the fates of Kings and Emperors, and saw the souls of millions consigned to the fiery pit of heresy. The man behind it all was Martin Luther, a humble monk of obscure origins. Bold, intellectually arrogant, and a master of spin, the assault he unleashed on the medieval Church had him excommunicated by the Pope. But what was it about Luther’s humble upbringing in Saxony and his strained relationship with his intimidating father that led him down a path of insolence? And was the religious revolution that he sparked inevitable?

Join Tom and Dominic as they discuss the early life of Martin Luther, the apocalyptic environment from which he and his radical ideas emerged, and the Catholic Church he would come to take on…
