	Huldreich Zwingli - LoveToKnow 1911
		HULDREICH ZWINGLI (1484-1531), Swiss reformer, was born on the 1st of January 1484, at Wildhaus in the Toggenburg valley, in the canton of St Gall, Switzerland.
		Zwingli indeed seemed still to be devoted to the pope, whom he styled "beatissimus Christi vicarius," and he publicly proclaimed the mercenary aid given by the Swiss to the papal cause to be its dutiful support of the Holy See.
		Zwingli prevailed on the council to forbid his entrance into Zurich; and even then the pope argued that, so long as the preacher was still receiving a papal pension, he could not be a formidable adversary, and he gave him a further sop in the form of an acolyte chaplaincy.

		Zwingli rose through the ranks of the Catholic church until he was appointed "People's Priest" in 1519, the most powerful ecclesiastical position in the city.

		Ulrich Zwingli, chief of the Reformers of German-speaking Switzerland, was born on January 1, 1484 in Waldhaus.
		Zwingli believed that the ultimate ecclesiastical authority is the Christian community (Gemiende), the local assembly of believers under the sole lordship of Christ and of the divinely inspired Scriptures that bear witness to redemption through him.
		For this debate, Zwingli prepared sixty-seven brief articles, asserting that the Gospel derives no authority from the church and that salvation is by faith alone, and denying the sacrificial character of the Mass, the salvatory character of good works, the value of saintly intercessors, the binding character of monastic vows, and the existence of purgatory.

		Zwingli was highly popular in Zurich, partly for resisting to be of military service in foreign wars, and due to his opposition to indulgences.
		Zwingli followed a very simple theology, and unlike Luther or Calvin, who had prolific and varied arguments and beliefs, he had a single belief that knit all his arguments together.
		Zwingli's opinion of Luther was that he was a hopeless case, supporting archaic and unreasonable Catholic teaching.

	Zwingli in Switzerland
		Zwingli, confident of the support of the city authorities, attacked the doctrine of Indulgences and was backed by the Grand Council, which ordered, at his instigation, that the Word of God should be preached according to the Scriptures, regardless of tradition or the interpretation of the Church.
		Incensed by this refusal Zwingli shook off the yoke of ecclesiastical authority, rejected the primacy of the Pope, and the infallibility of General Councils, denounced celibacy and vows of chastity as inventions of the devil, and called upon the Swiss people to support him in his fight for religious freedom.
		Zwingli besought his followers to issue a declaration of war, but it was suggested that the reduction of the Catholic cantons could be secured just as effectively by a blockade.

	H373 - The Reformation in Switzerland: Huldrych Zwingli and John Calvin
		The leading contributions of Zwingli's theology for modern Christianity lie in his clear explanation of the doctrines of the church: the Eucharist, Baptism, the Church, Faith, and the Bible; as well as his doctrine of God, the Trinity, and the afterlife.
		Zwingli hoped, when he learned of Luther's work, that the two of them would be able to work together to bring about the peaceful reformation of the Church.
		Zwingli's reaction was to weep bitterly over their inability to come together; but Luther scoffed at Zwingli and from that point would have nothing to do with him -- even making fun of him in letters and lectures by calling him Zwingle.

		Zwingli explains the contextual and symbolic significance of the Eucharist with the analogy of the queen's ring.
		Moreover, Zwingli argued that baptism was a superior sign since it was a gentler sign (involving no blood or pain) and both male and female children could be participate in the sacrament of baptism.
		The persecution of the anabaptists under Zwingli is based in large part upon Reformed Covenant theology, for the refusal to have one's children baptized was no longer a minor theological disagreement, but it became an act against the church as community as city.

		But Zwingli's injunctions apply also to adults, and though he deals with simple and obvious matters, he is careful to note the significance of them.

	_ Ulrich Zwingli Zurich Zürich (Site not responding. Last check: )
		At the vanguard of the Reformation, Huldrych (or Ulrich) Zwingli is one of the most radical anti-establishment figures in the whole history of Europe, a dedicated and eloquent humanist who developed a passion for the liberty of individuals to decide the course of their lives free from the strictures of the past.
		Whereas Zwingli’s contemporary Martin Luther was poorly educated and underwent his internal religious crisis in social isolation, Zwingli came to his personal revolution through education, studying in Basel, Bern, Vienna and possibly Paris, and absorbing the humanist ideas of the Dutch philosopher Erasmus.
		It says a great deal for Zwingli’s powers of persuasion and the city of Zürich’s courage that, in the historic disputation at a time of religious and political turbulence, the city council came down on the side of their preacher.
