Another 95 Theses

 8: The everyday religion of the church is now fairly low-key, sincere, and pragmatic; members go about their lives mostly without burdening themselves or others with showy public prayers, overt expressions of piety, or confessions.

44: The preachers who supposedly channel the Holy Spirit to offer the only truthful Bible interpretation reveal little but ignorance and sectarian cheerleading in their sermons and writings, citing notoriously inauthentic passages, favoring mistranslations, twisting texts for doctrinal convenience, disregarding inconvenient contradictory passages, and naïvely treating every book as if it were part of a single consistent, unquestionable “Word of God,” which even Luther didn’t do.
