5 June 2006 - Can I propose dividing this up into sections, now that the article has reached a length of reasonable coverage of the various parts of Luther's life? I would suggest Early Life; Developing Radicalism; Peasant's War; Muntzer's Teachings; Muentzder's legacy. Any objections? Otherwise I will develop in due course.

The link to Prague Manifesto is incorrect. It links to a Soviet document.
- A disambiguation page is needed.
_____________ The link to "Muentzer Scholarship in the DDR, 1949-1983 " is also incorrect.
[edit] confusing paragraph
alright, this is confusing: Luther was also not as radical as was Muentzer. In criticizing the Catholic clergy who did not believe in continued revelation from heaven he stated, "These villainous and treacherous parsons are of no use to the church in even the slightest manner, for they deny the voice of the bridegroom, which is a truly certain sign that they are a pack of devils. How could they then be God's servants, bearers of his word, which they shamelessly deny with their whore's brazenness? For all true parsons must have revelations, so that they are certain of their cause."
now who said it? it says "he stated" but this is right following both the mention of Luther and Müntzer, so who said it?

[edit] Name Spelling?
Should someone go through the article and make sure "Muentzer" is spelled the same way throughout? I think it would make the article more coherent and accessible. Thanks, Samboha 23:37, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Method of Execution
I've only ever heard/read that Müntzer was burned at the stake, and did not recant his views, but was burned after being asked "Why did you lead the poor people astray?" and responding "It was the will of God that I should punish the Princes" or something of that nature. Yet here it says he was beheaded; could someone clarify that? -Ahuitzotl 22:29, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
