Martin Luther objected to what policy of the Catholic Church, which prompted him to write and post his Ninety-Five Theses

Indulgences.

Essentially, what the Catholic Church decided to do was to convince its subjects that paying it in small fees would reduce the amount of time they would spend in Purgatory (think the place between Heaven and Hell). These fees were called indulgences, and people could pay to have their or their family members' years in Purgatory slightly shaved off. This, of course, allowed it to gain much money, as people's years in Purgatory sometimes numbered in the thousands, if not the <em>MILLIONS</em><em /><em /><em>. </em>


Martin Luther was angered at such a system, finding it deceptive and corrupt. He wrote and posted his Ninety-Five Theses in defence of the Church, but with disdain towards the indulgence system.<u />

Why did the invasion of Poland have a significant effect on World War II?
Margarita [4]

Answer:

The invasion of Poland marked the start of World War 2. Britain and France were not convinced that it was a defensive war and it all began world war 2. Poland was also divided between the USSR and Germany so the Western Allies saw that their tactic of starving Germany of resources would be impossible since the USSR continued to supply the Germans at that stage of the war. New tactics and technology were tested in Poland and those same tactics will later be even more developed against France.
