Martin Luther


Question from R. Pinion on 10/18/2007:

Recently I heard that, when Martin Luther was on his deathbed, Luther asked for a Catholic priest to confess to for starting the Protestant Reformation. Is this an urban legend?

Thanks in advance!

R. Pinion--

Unless the person who told you this story can produce evidence to substantiate it, I recommend treating it as a pious legend.
