Question

Give 3 examples of religion as an agent of social change

Answer 1

Answer:

Using as a reference the Protestant Reform, I´ll provide these example of religion an agent of social change:

- Luther´s Reform questioned the traditional dogmas and practice of the Catholic Church. By doing that a new form of Christianity was born, new churches were born.

- Luther advocated separation of religious affairs from political affairs; the division  between state and church is a characteristic of Western modernity;

- When some princes or head of states adopted Protestantism, it contributed to a redrawing of European power politics in the 16th and 17th centuries.
