During a Nov. 1 Forum at Bluffton University, Dr. David Weaver-Zercher, professor of American religious history at Messiah College, took students to the early 16th century in the midst of the Protestant Reformation. At that time, Anabaptists were cruelly punished for their beliefs.
“Catholics and Protestants didn’t agree on much, but they did agree on killing Anabaptists so they couldn’t spread their ideas,” said Weaver-Zercher, author of “Martyrs Mirror: A Social History.”
