Answer:

The most famous popular resistance took place in Boston, where opponents of the Stamp Act, calling themselves the Sons of Liberty, enlisted the rabble of Boston in opposition to the new law. This mob paraded through the streets with an effigy of Andrew Oliver, Boston’s stamp distributor, which they hanged from the Liberty Tree and beheaded before ransacking Oliver’s home. Oliver agreed to resign his commission as stamp distributor.

Determined colonial resistance made it impossible for the British government to bring the Stamp Act into effect. In 1766, Parliament repealed it.

How will these differences between Martin Luther and the pope be resolved?
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

On October 31, 1517, German scholar Martin Luther is said to have nailed his argument against the Catholic Church's sale of better treatment after death to a church door in Wittenberg.

Whether this actually happened is disputed, but what's not disputed is that his "95 Theses" quickly spread debate through Europe and led to an irrevocable split in Western Christianity.

Luther's influence can still be felt — he's been credited with the rise of secular democracy, among other things — but it was theology that he was concerned about.

If all you know about the Reformation are references on The Simpsons, read on to find out why Luther disagreed with the Catholic Church.
