Reformation day!
On 31 October 1517, the then Catholic [Augustinian] monk Martin Luther nailed his 95 theses on the door of All Saints' Church and other churches in Wittenberg, Germany. He detailed the areas he thought needed change in the church.
This singular action led to disagreements that eventually led to the Protestant movement or Reformation that later divided the church to date.
The Wārs of Reformation, which are also called the European wars of religion, began in the 16th century and ended in the 18th century. The most devastating war during the entire conflict was the Thirty Years' Wär (1618-1648), which took between 3 and 11.5 million lives.
If there is any topic African Traditional Religions should lecture all religions in, it is on religious tolerance. Our ancestors had various deities and beliefs but never fought a single war that bothered on beliefs.
If you are African discriminating against your brother or sister owing to beliefs, you need to return your brains to factory settings.
The German Catholics and protestants reconciled many years ago. From time to time, they worship together.
Today is a public holiday in some German states. It is called Reformation Day. To our protestant brothers REFORMATION DAY
