Spreading Ideas: The Bible and Dissent
Spreading Ideas: The Bible and Dissent is a skill on Pengi from Lesson 2: The Printing Press in Pengi Social Studies (Grade 7).
Key Concepts
The most explosive impact of the printing press was religious. Before the press, the Catholic Church controlled the interpretation of the Bible because it was written in Latin. With the press, scholars like William Tyndale and Martin Luther translated the Bible into vernacular languages.
Suddenly, ordinary people could read the scripture for themselves. They began to question whether the Church’s practices (like selling indulgences) were actually in the Bible. The printing press acted as the catalyst for the Reformation , spreading critical ideas across borders rapidly and making it impossible for the Church to silence dissent.
