 * Martin Luther was a man during the Renaissance who was upset about the selling of indulgences. He was upset that the church was deceiving the common people. The church was telling Christians that they could buy their salvation. Martin Luther was opposed to this notion, because he read the Bible and interpreted it differently. Martin Luther wrote the 95 theses on why indulgences were wrong and could not save people from the consequences of their actions in the afterlife. The theses stated that forgiveness from your sins could only be given to devoted Christians. He also believed that the true religious authority was held inside the Bible, and not the Pope. He wrote these and printed them all around the German states for all christians to read. Later the churched excommunicated Luther, but it was too late, Luter sparked a religious idea that would spred all around europe, and later the world. || The Pilgrims had to cross the Atlantic in two months, and Leonardo decided to further investigate their ships in hopes of speeding up their voyage and ensuring a safe trip. As his investigations continued he discovered that they had many defects and sought to improve them. He studied the movement of the water to better understand a ships travel. Along with water research, came land ones as well. He mad many small discoveries on his rode to larger ones. This included the large wheel, he learned that a large wheel turns easier than a small one. This information was added to his already vast knowledge of friction studies. || King Henry VIII was the king of England in Anglican times, and he had a strong impact on the Catholic Church. He needed a son to inherit his position when he passed away, however he believed that his first wife couldn't have anymore children. For this reason, he tried to have his marriage with Catherine of Aragon annulled. The pope that he asked was Charles V, this pope was related to Catherine, so he had difficulty with annulling his aunt's marriage and he denied annulling the marriage. The king refused to give up, and he decided to break away from the church. He used what is known now as the Reformation Parliament to legalize the separation with Rome. This movement ended with King Henry VIII as the head of the new Anglican Church. The only main difference between these churches, was that clergy answered to the King and not the Pope. To gain the public support, he sold most of the Church lands to upper and middle class. Later King Henry succeeded in having a son, Edward, with his third wife Jane Seymour. ||
