The 95 Theses

What are the big ideas?

The author wanted to communicate to the church that there was something deeply wrong with the way they were teaching and it wasn't the same as the bible.

How does the author communicate ideas?

The author uses numbered points to communicate his ideas, and explains them in a way that anyone part of the church would understand.

Who wrote it? Why?

A monk named Martin Luther was the one who wrote it because he believed the current church system at the time to be greatly flawed.

What does it look like?

Aside from online documents, it was depicted to be pieces of paper stuck on the wall of the church, formatted by points in numbers.

What does it reveal about the values and beliefs of the past?

This reveals that it was very much frowned upon to go against the church, considering Martin Luther had to secretly place the Theses on the door. It also reveals that the population held the church in a very high regard and would follow it blindly.

Did it result in change?

It resulted in a huge change, both in the church and also Christianity as a whole. It made people realize they might not know everything, and that there are other options then just following the church.

Which questions can this help me answer? Which can it not?

This can help me answer if anything was done about the issues, and who did it. However, it cannot help me with the question about if it did help or not, or if it made any difference.

Whose perspectives are omitted/questioned/challenged?

The church's perspective isn't touched on, same with the Pope even though those are the ones that are challenged. The author questions what they are doing, but doesn't delve into their perspective on it.

Whose perspective does it reflect?

It reflects the perspective of one outside the inner circle of the church, seemingly one that is aware of what they are doing and also what the bible preaches.

What ideas are left out?

I think he communicated everything he wanted to, the only thing that he could've explained better is why the Pope was doing what he was doing, inspecting it from the other side as well.
