It’s essentially a celebration of Martin Luther hammering the 95 theses on the church doors and the Reformation/splintering of the faithful that occurred there-after. For a Catholic, it is hardly something that is worth celebrating.

I’d much rather we talk about the counter-reformation saints such as St. Francis who addressed the problems within the Church and made true reformation from within, as well as pray together for true unity among all Christians around the world.

My Lutheran friend says they were kicked out and that they tried to make reforms…? I don’t think that’s wholly true but idk to what extent -dc

@by-grace-of-god has been making posts about reformation day on her blog if you wanna check it out!

I just made one post today but this is my reformation tag with previous ones…

I would highly recommend Hillaire Belloc’s writings on The Great Heresies for anyone interested. Chapter 5 is on the Reformation.
