I’ve found other posts and comments from within the community to check the options available, and that doesn’t appear for me. Would that have anything to do with them having been made a mod prior to me, like a seniority order?

No, I’m not angry, it’s been five centuries since Luther pulled his egotistical bullshit, I’ve had time to cope. Plus, I’m not a Western Christian anyway, so at the end of the day it’s still not my circus and not my monkeys.
I am passionate though, because so many of the problems in Western Christianity today lie squarely or predominantly at Luther’s feet.

How the hell did you get any of that out of what I said? His impact on Western civilization can’t be ignored, he fractured the Western Church and people should be made aware of the terrible views he espoused so history can rightly regard him as the miserable asshole he was rather than some force for good mythology has made him out to be.

the act of trying to justify or judge the actions of a someone from 5 centuries ago is doomed to failure.
Sorry, but that’s horseshit. Teaching something like this:
If I had to baptize a Jew, I would take him to the bridge of the Elbe, hang a stone round his neck and push him over with the words I baptize thee in the name of Abraham.
is an objectively reprehensible stance regardless of the cultural context. The rejection of morality, conscience, and Christian teaching by an ordained priest is absolutely worthy of judgment, and the fact that he lived 500 years ago doesn’t change that a bit.

Other people also having fucked up opinions at the time also don’t justify the truly fucked up opinions and teachings of one specific person.

Sure, and I never argued otherwise. The fact that he was able to point out an obviously unjust and despicable practice doesn’t detract from his horrible and unconscionable teachings on other subjects.

Again, that’s a common opinion for a circlejerking atheist Internet forum. It’s not at all an acceptable position for a cleric of the Church.
Luther was a priest who presumed to correct the Christian Church on matters of the faith. He sounds like a fifteen year old neckbeard who has his head squarely ensconced in his own ass.

Obligatory reposting of this list of fucked up things Martin Luther actually said.
