All Heresy Begins Below the Waist
I like to visit Wikipedia and correct some of the mistakes and deceptions - grammatical, historical and philosophical one often finds there; e.g., changing “BCE” to BC. And “CE” to AD, etc. Unfortunately, the political values seen at Wikipedia are displayed in full 3D now: it is a woke propaganda outlet.
Not everywhere, and not equally, but in things that the cabal considers important Wikipedia reliably follows the party line.
I’ve noticed this too when reading articles on and surrounding the so-called “reformation”. You might not suspect Wikipedia of having any interest in falsifying the history there, but they do.
Martin Luther for one, obtains quite generous terms from Wikipedia. His vices are ignored, or downplayed, while his virtues receive excess praise. I know more about Luther than many others. He was no hero. He was a violent and vicious person plain and simple.
It is a curious fact that protestants don’t know that much about him... and the little they do know is usually wrong. Nailing his "ninety-five theses" on the church door in Wittenberg for example.
This isn’t surprising though because as a rule protestants know little about Church history. Or even that of their own particular sects; much preferring to profess the "Bible alone!" - which they then proceed to deform in thousands of strange ways. Don't believe me? OK, why are there so many protestant sects?
Anyway, the legend of Luther, repeated in Wikipedia and elsewhere, contains more than a few errors, distortions… and outright falsehoods. Not unlike Luther himself. One incident in his life is especially worth pondering.
In the late 1530’s, Philip I, the Landgrave of Hesse, was quite taken by one of his wife’s ladies in waiting. A seventeen year old girl named Margarethe, who was eighteen years younger than him.
Not content with merrily fornicating with her, Philip wondered why he shouldn’t be able to take her for his wife also. After all, the OT patriarchs often had more than one wife. Why not him? He was the Landgrave of Hesse after all. So he asked Luther his opinion.
Luther prevaricated. Bigamy was a dangerous notion back then, even among Lutherans. But Philip was very persistent and Luther badly needed his support, so eventually he quietly gave him the permission he was looking for.
Philip quickly married the girl and began parading about with a wife on each arm. This caused a stink, even in Germany, and when he was asked who told him he could have two wives Philip answered: “Luther!”
Luther was in a predicament. His reputation, maybe his freedom... his life even... were at stake. So, he did something his new religion allowed… he lied. Saying he never countenanced bigamy.
However, Philip then produced the letter Luther had written him giving consent to the bigamous marriage. Luther was forced back on his heels. But ever the rebel against honesty he declared that when "permission is given privately it must be denied publicly."
When I added that bit of information to the Wikipedia whitewash about the incident it was swiftly reverted.
Perhaps you too are getting donation pleas from Wikipedia. Don’t do it. They’re not honest. Regretfully, I’ve sent them money a few times in the past.
But that was then.
