Why would Christ allow the Spanish to be ruled by Muslims for 781 years? Why would Christ allow Martin Luther and Henry VIII to murder Catholics throughout Europe, create the Puritan fanaticism, create the American, French, English, Irish, Russian, German Revolutions, and the political climate of the 1930s?

The Supreme Personality of Godhead said in effect, "I fulfill all ambitions that is desire for everyone on this planet."
Since we are imitations gods, we want to be the Lord of all we survey. In the spiritual world there is only one God, and everyone is servant.
Here everyone wants to be God.

Martin Luther did not kill Catholics, he posted his complaints on the door of Wittenberg Abby where he was a monk after translating Acts into German. You are referring to the upheaval which was those to defied the church as a result of his translation then all I can tell you is over zealous people commit horrible acts and though there intention and hart may be in the right place there action is not.
Henry VIII, OK he is just a powerful odd fellow who wanted to take power away from the church.
Crusades & Jihads, again over zealous people committing horrible acts that have pure intentions but actions are debatable.
Throughout history people have used God’s name to commit actions that can or can not be the “truth” when concerning God. It is a matter of there belief, culture and interpretation of God and God’s word.

Martin Luther did no longer kill Catholics, he published his proceedings on the door of Wittenberg Abby the place he grew to become right into a monk after translating Acts into German. you're concerning the upheaval which grew to become into those to defied the church consequently of his translation then all i will inform you is over zealous human beings commit terrible acts and although there purpose and hart could be in the the perfect option place there action isn't. Henry VIII, ok he's in basic terms a effectual weird and wonderful fellow who had to take skill faraway from the church. Crusades & Jihads, back over zealous human beings committing terrible acts that have organic intentions yet movements are arguable. for the time of history human beings have used God’s call to commit movements which could or won't be able to be the “reality” while proper to God. it truly is an argument of there perception, custom and interpretation of God and God’s be conscious.

Because people personify deity, it does not follow that there is NO cause and effect relationship between being and reality. Although adepts have historically been misunderstood by the masses - their teachings used as an excuse for countless wars - does not make their insight any less powerful. Our primitive sciences have yet to catch up with their intuited understanding of how reality is responsive to each individual's level of consciousness. We are all interconnected and reality also mirrors consciousness en masse.

Where in the world did you hear that Martin Luther murdered catholics--that's definately worth looking into again my friend.
You are confusing what God does with what people do. To atheists, the logical, logical atheists, this seems to be one and the same

God allows good and evil to play out in life. The angels fight the demons and we are to be discerning enough to see that the Crusades were persecuting the true christians (the ones who were willing to die for Jesus and the gospel).

Sometimes, being human and all, we can't see the whole picture or why God allows things. Sometimes we can if we really look into but sometimes we got to step back and know that we aren't God and discern everything He does.

For those theists who will undoubtedly answer something about free will and choice. And that all these people either chose to be sinners or were induced by a sinister evil force, like the devil.
this question just as easily could have been asked about the many nasty diseases which slowly and painfully kill millions of innocent children of righteous parents.
