"Being taught class, elegance and standards from a young age by my parents has taught me a lot. My silence and no reaction over certain things stems from the education my parents taught me. If I come down to reacting, I'll definitely be in the prison and that's something I can't afford."

-Me.

If i could travel back to the time of hamlet, specifically when he's in university, i'd bring with me but one can of coffee and offer it to the most desperate and sleep-deprived student on site. That student, upon realising the elixir was able to keep him up and energised long enough to finish their project will come back the next night for the strange concoction. After a few nights, he'll bring his friend to come see the strange stay-up-all-night potion maker, and after confirming that it did indeed also keep him up at night long enough to do his work, in excitement, they will bring more friends. Soon enough a rumour will spread about the Wittenburg witch who brings strange bottles of liquid that can keep you up the whole night. Eventually I start charging for the cans and the college students, now caffeine-depndent, will come crawling back with stacks of notes and coins, begging for another sip so they can finish tonight's homework. Once I am satisfied with the work I have done, I will bury the money in a time capsule with the relevant documentation near my house in the present. Once i return to the present, having left all the now caffeine-addicted students wandering for me in confusion (it's an exam night), I will dig up the capsule, provide the documents proving the money is rightfully mine by laws of inheritance, convert it to modern day currency, quit my job and live on a beach in the bahamas, now a millionnaire

*A pastor who fails to deal with sin is like a doctor who fails to deal with illness. You better find another one."

Martin Luther OSA was a German priest, theologian, author, hymnwriter, professor, and Augustinian friar. Luther was the seminal figure of the Protestant Reformation, and his theological beliefs form the basis of Lutheranism. He is widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in Western and Christian history. 

Nailed the 95 Theses: Martin Luther is best known for his 95 Theses, which he is said to have nailed to the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg on October 31, 1517. This act is commonly considered the starting point of the Protestant Reformation, challenging the Catholic Church's practices, particularly the sale of indulgences.

Excommunicated and Outlawed: In 1521, Luther was excommunicated by Pope Leo X and declared an outlaw by the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V at the Diet of Worms. Despite this, he continued to promote his reforms and translated the Bible into German, making it more accessible to the common people.

Translation of the Bible: Luther translated the Bible into German, starting with the New Testament in 1522 and completing the Old Testament in 1534. His translation played a significant role in shaping the German language and making the Scriptures accessible to a broader audience.

Theological Contributions: Luther's theology emphasized key doctrines such as justification by faith alone (sola fide), the authority of Scripture alone (sola scriptura), and the priesthood of all believers. These ideas were foundational to the development of Protestantism.

Lutheranism: Martin Luther’s teachings and reforms led to the establishment of the Lutheran Church, one of the major branches of Protestantism. His followers, known as Lutherans, continued to develop his theological insights and build upon his reforming work, influencing the course of Christian history.
