I'm a born and bred Roman Catholic, 74 years old, and I have just read Martin Luther's 95 Theses, which are considered by many to be the starting point of the Reformation.
To me, it is interesting that he implicitly believes in the whole Purgatory - Indulgences - Plenary Indulgences thing, but thinks that at the time they were being abused by the Pope and others. On the whole, if he were a Catholic theologian today, his views would not be considered revolutionary at all.
Any Catholics out there disagree?
