Clue: it commemorates a major event in church history. Hello faith in God alone, goodbye selling of indulgences.  Wink

It was when the Catholic Church declared it unnecessary that indulgences were needed to get into heaven...or something like that.

Judging by Whitehose's last post and my limited knowledge of history, that is.

There are no Christian holidays. However we are to remember the Lord's death till He comes by partaking of communion.

Yes indeedy! You hit the nail right on the head. It's Reformation Day, commemorating Martin Luther's posting of the theses on the church door. Good job!

Butterfly, I guess we wouldn't be celebrating it if Columbus hadn't discovered a place for us to have our freedom, so I vote for sharing the credit with him, too.  Wink
