Yeah, the Reformation really wasn't much of an improvement. A painful read.
"Faith must trample under foot all reason, sense, and understanding."
-Martin Luther
"Reason is a whore, the greatest enemy that faith has."

Yep, that about sums it up.

Most of this focuses on theological minutia. I can't tell if the Jews are really "lying" in this sense, because I don't know anything about these inane theological disputes.

Luther sure had some valid points, like about the "diaspora-attitude" and about the socalled aligance to the Caesars.
And don`t come here saying Jesus was a jew. A christian believes that Jesus was part of the trinity god, so they consider Jesus as the creator of the whole world including the jews themselves. But if Jesus had lied he probably was a jew.

I used to have a picture of Martin Luther in my room with pride and great admiration but when I read such hateful things he would have to say about the Jews, it broke my heart and I lost all respect for Martin Luther with his Nazi views.

“If God had not permitted the people of Jerusalem to be torn asunder and driven them from the land, but had let them keep it after before, no one could convince them that they are not God`s chosen people.”
