Humans are complex beings with exceptional attributes that no other living being possesses and by the virtue of those qualities, humans are powerful. A particular one is expectation: a deep, secret characteristic of the mind that constructs a view of what is best for our reality based on a collection of beliefs. Society then, associates every situation, every person to their own judgment presuming that is fair. But I disagree on the accuracy of expectations of the character of people. Due to how personal expectation is, categorizing a good or bad person is unreliable; as it is superficial, without analytical considerations of other expectations-which differ from person to person.

Martin Luther was one of the most influential and controversial figures in Christian history, due to his role in the Protestant Reformation.

Although mining was the family business, Hans Luther (Martin 's father) wanted his son to have a promising future so the family moved from Eisleben to nearby Mansfield, where Hans held an ore deposit.
Even though Martin Luther was a member of the Catholic Church, he began to question the beliefs and the customs that the church preached. The belief that the individual could not communicate with God was one of his main contentions. The Catholic Church looked to the Pope to find a relationship with God. They had a very ritualistic view of worship, and tended to focus more on the ritual than a personal relationship with God (Tarr 2005). While the church believed that the Pope could grant grace to the people through the sale of indulgences, Martin Luther had a strong belief that grace could only come to one through an individual’s faith. He strongly believed that all people should turn back to their Bibles and find answers for themselves (Sayre 2010). The sale of indulgences, along with the ritualistic pilgrimages and people leaving money to the church on their deaths to speed up their arrival into heaven all worked together to move Martin Luther to rebel against the Catholic Church.
