Martin Luther was a Catholic Priest. He did not start the Lutheran religion, in fact he did not want to start a new religion. He wanted the Catholic Church to reform. Although excommunicated from the Church he continued to believe in the Catholic Church and was opposed to any violence associated with the reforms he wanted.

I think Luther would have seen the Protestant Churches of today as a freer Catholic Church

Stupid ass.....
anybody can make themselves look impressive by cherry-picking meanings -- as you have.

next time try an encyclopedia:

Crux (pronounced /ˈkrʌks/, Latin: cross), commonly known as the Southern Cross (Crux Australis, in contrast to the Northern Cross), is the smallest of the 88 modern constellations, but nevertheless one of the most distinctive. It is surrounded on three sides by the constellation Centaurus while to the south lies the Fly (Musca). Ancient Greeks originally thought Crux was part of Centaurus, but it was defined as a separate asterism in the 16th century after Amerigo Vespucci's expedition to South America in 1501. Vespucci mapped the two stars, Alpha Centauri and Beta Centauri as well as the stars of the Crux. Although these stars were known to the ancient Greeks, gradual precession of the equinoxes had lowered them below the European skyline so that they were forgotten there. For example at the latitude of Athens in 1000 B.C., Crux was clearly visible, although it was low in the sky. [1] However, by 400 A.D., most of the constellation never rose above the horizon for Athenians. [2]

"stupid ass", indeed.

Second, You should study Ben Franklin a little closer. He was a British traitor that sat out the war and was indeed a supporter of Christianity as long as it was a benefit to him in certain matters. Ben later denounced the divinity of Christ on his deathbed after HIS work was completed. In other words, Ben stood for what He thought would bring him more reward with his genius.
Excuse me but the statement regarding Luther giving orders to lay waste to the German peasants is absolute bullshit. Luther was completely against violence in spreading the word of God. Where are you getting your information.

Ben Franklin a British traitor? explain please

Nihilist
Wonwipedass is a crossdressing homosexual who cannot bear to leave his mothers bed and so post bullshit on every thread. All of his post are exactly the same and generally make no sense to anyone except him. The best way to deal with him is the ignore button

In Luthers own words
Do you know what the Devil thinks when he sees men use violence to propagate the gospel? He sits with folded arms behind the fire of hell, and says with malignant looks and frightful grin: "Ah, how wise these madmen are to play my game! Let them go on; I shall reap the benefit. I delight in it." But when he sees the Word running and contending alone on the battle-field, then he shudders and shakes for fear
