In my particular series of historical blog posts\u00a0<\/a> (Heck of a Ride Around the Sun) I have tried to include and insert many many canonized Catholic Saints, Blesseds, Venerables and Servants of God into the timelines. I may have missed some and it\u2019s hard to go back and drop them into history. So I\u2019m putting them here in this particular series of articles on the Catholic Bard\u2019s List of Saints.<\/p>\n

I took the General Roman Calendar, some books on saints such as\u2026<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

to make this timeline.<\/p>\n

Some saints have more info then other saints. Some just have their name in this list because their name is in the General Roman Calendar. Perhaps with more time I could find out more about them and include it in this piece. Also if you didn\u2019t see your favorite saint listed, it\u2019s because I can\u2019t list everyone. I would have to create a website just for that purpose. But of course that has already been done.\u00a0 You can find that website here.<\/p>\n

16th Century<\/h1>\n Though the sixteenth century began with chaos, it also produced numerous great saints. In 1517, the Augustinian priest, Father Martin Luther, issued his Ninety-Five Theses that led to the Protestant Reformation, or Protestant Revolt. Father Luther raised many legitimate concerns in his theses, such as the abuses that persisted with the buying and selling of indulgences. Though many within the Catholic Church agreed there was need for reform, Father Luther\u2019s approach, the rallying cry that accompanied him, and his condemnation by the Church, brought about rapid dissension and division within the Church and within nations. Soon, others followed with other questions and concerns, such as John Calvin and Ulrich Zwingli. Luther\u2019s influence was especially felt in Germany, Calvin in Geneva, Switzerland, and Ulrich Zwingli\u2019s influence was predominantly in Zurich, Switzerland.

In so acting, God so transforms the soul in Him that it knows nothing other than God; and He continues to draw it up into His fiery love until He restores it to that pure state from which it first issued. These rays purify and then annihilate. The soul becomes like gold that becomes purer as it is fired, all dross being cast out.
