Early Christianity was seen as a threat to the Roman way of life.
Jesus was a man to them that threatened their security.
Authorities did not think anything of it after his death until disciples and others (Paul) began spreading Christianity.
Paul was a Roman citizen who persecuted Christians until his conversion.
Next, Christian beliefs threatened Rome’s way of life because they refused to perform Caesar Worship.

People began to turn to the church, but some realized that they could do nothing.
Many began to turn away from the church for the first time during the middle ages.
![Page 24: History of Europe](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568138ef550346895da0a326/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
There were no real doctors. People did not know what caused
diseases. Many times seeing a “doctor” would
make you more sick. They might make you throw up or put
leeches on you.

Crusades – series of brutal religious wars to gain back Palestine, the birthplace of Christianity from the Muslims (1095 – 1272).

Renaissance – A 300 year period of discovery and learning (1300 – 1600)• Advances in European Civilization• Interest in ancient cultures of Rome and Greece• Stressed the importance of people and their
place in the world• Led to scientific advances, literature, and
sculptures.

Reformation (1517 – 1648) – religious movement that lessened the power of the Roman Catholic church.
The Reformation of the 16th century was a movement within Western Christendom to purge the church of medieval abuses and to restore the doctrines and practices that the reformers believed conformed with the Bible and the New Testament model of the church. This led to a breach between the Roman Catholic Church and the reformers whose beliefs and practices came to be called Protestantism.

Causes: • The Renaissance: Raised the level of Education,
Emphasized ancient classics, Emphasized thought, paid close attention to languages and texts.
• Invention of the Printing press• Sales of Indulgences by the church• Restlessness and dissatisfaction of the people
(church could not offer them true spirituality because of their corruptiveness.)
• A new middle class that had more knowledge and education.
![Page 32: History of Europe](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568138ef550346895da0a326/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
With the development of learning, many monks began to translate the bible into Germanic languages.
On man in doing this, Martin Luther, found many things that he felt were the foundations of Christianity, but were not supported by the church.
The main thing was selling of indulgences (Payment of forgiveness of sin to the priest.)
He believed that salvation was a free gift to persons through the forgiveness of sins by God's grace alone and received by them through faith in Christ.
![Page 33: History of Europe](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568138ef550346895da0a326/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
He nailed a 95 theses to the door of the Catholic church stating all of their wrong doings.
He was excommunicated from the church, but was later backed by Frederick III and other German princes.
![Page 34: History of Europe](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568138ef550346895da0a326/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Obviously it separated the Catholic church and the new Protestant form of Christianity.
People began to seek out God independently and read and interpret the Bible.
Development of National churches.• Ex) Henry VIII wanted to get divorced from his
first wife, but the Catholic church would excommunicate him, so he started his own church (the Church of England.)
Modern thought that is prevalent today.

Ireland =Catholic. England finally took control over Ireland in the
16th century. Land in the north was mainly settled by
English and Scottish Protestants while land in the South was mainly Catholic, and here starts our problem.
The North and the South grew further apart due to economic differences. The North was industrialized while the South was mainly agricultural, but most land was run by Protestants.
![Page 40: History of Europe](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568138ef550346895da0a326/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
The fighting began because of who would control all of Ireland.
Ireland wanted to be free from the United Kingdom, yet Northerners did not want to be in a country ruled by the majority of Catholics.
Fighting broke out and eventually the United Kingdom gave Southern Ireland its freedom and Northern Ireland remained a part of Great Britain.
Fighting started back up in the 60’s – 90’s by the IRA (Irish Republican Army). Mainly over religious beliefs. It did not end until around 2000.

“The Troubles”
The so-called "troubles" began in 1968 when Catholics demanded equal voting rights from the Protestant controlled parliament. Demonstrations ensued. Later, the British army, originally brought in to keep the peace, became embroiled in the violence. More than 3,700 people have died since the conflict began.
