Very interesting photograph…as always. Is this about religious reformation or political reformation? Well, actually there isn’t a difference is there? They are one and the same thing.
It’s 500 years ago (really already THAT long???) that Martin Luther published his 95 theses … a protestant friend of mine was singing in choir there (they sang also Händel’s „Halleluja“, so beautiful!), that was why I went there. A famous Austrian actor was also reading Martin Luther King’s famous speech, that was gorgeous! Very touching …
MLK’s „I have a dream“ speech? Oh, what a powerful and truly beautiful speech by such an inspirational leader of people.

Every time I hear the „Hallelujah Chorus“ I cry with joy for the beauty of that music.

I know a woman who was married to a former catholic priest, …
At the time I was struggling to decide if I believed in any of it. Luckily my now wife put an end to the discussion. =)
Sometimes it takes two for one decision :o) —
