I was reading Martin Luther's wiki article the other day:
"Johann von Staupitz, his superior and frustrated confessor, concluded that Luther needed more work to distract him from excessive introspection and ordered him to pursue an academic career" [1]
basically he was a moody college student

- skdhfkdjfhsjk 6mo agoTranslation: the confessor was frustrated because Mr. Luther would not accept the B.S. he was being told to believe, and he thought a nice rigorous period of brainwashing in academia (controlled also by the Church) was the solution to the young man's "problem." History of course came to a different conclusion. Who controls Wikipedia, and why do they want people to think ill about Martin Luther?
