… that the Diet of Worms (January-May 1521) was convened by Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor to address, among other issues, the works of the reformer Martin Luther (1483-1546) who openly criticised the Church. Luther was told to recant and, when he would not, was charged with heresy, marking his official break with the Church. “Who wants to eat worms?” he famously said from the Cathedral steps.
Nobody likes Luther

Tedious writing in the extreme, just droning on about the cost of living and how people can’t afford their gas bills…
….oh hang on, that’s Martin Lewis

Starting a thread about Luther is a mug’s game.
It’s not about Idris Elba driving a Volvo then
