Martin Luther: Obstinate, Intolerant, Abusive and Rude

The Tablet

The head of the Augustinians has urged all members to commemorate but not go so far as to celebrate the life of the order's best-known rebels, Martin Luther. Fr Alejandro Moral Antón OSA, the Prior General, has written a strongly-worded letter to the brothers and sisters of the mendicant order, formally founded in the 13th century, marking the 500th anniversary of the Reformation.
