Is Our Constitution Still Relevant?

Food for Thought

After we learned about why the Renaissance began in Itlay, what caused the downfall of feudalism, the Classical influence on Renaissance artists, thinkers and society, and how humanism changed the way social classes were arranged, I would like for you to be thinking about even more change.  While we saw great changes from the Middle Ages into the Renaissance we will continue to see changes. 

Remember, History is a series of connected events with cuase and efffect relationships as well as patterns that develop over time. 

So, today we move on and learn about another "changemaker". His name is Martin Luther and he was a revolutionary in that he was repsonsible for bringing about some much needed changes within the Catholic Church. 

I'll leave you with this questions. What was the church doing that he felt needed changed?

Enjoy your day
