You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

((Short description|Catholic reform movement, 1530s-1560s))
((More citations needed|date=February 2007))
The '''Spirituali''' were members of a reform movement<ref>((cite book|last= Fenlon|first= Dermot|title= Heresy and obedience in Tridentine Italy: Cardinal Pole and the counter reformation|url= https://books.google.com/books?id=s9Y9AAAAIAAJ|access-date= 2010-02-05|year= 1972|publisher= Cambridge University Press|isbn= 978-0-521-20005-9|page=21|quote= In Italy, the term ''spirituali'' was applied to the coventicles meeting in the towns and cities, nourishing a devotion to the doctrine of justification ''ex sola fide'', and hoping to see a ''rapprochement'' between the Church of Rome and the reformers of the north.))</ref> within the [[Catholicism|Roman Catholic Church]], which existed from the 1530s to the 1560s.<ref>((cite thesis |last=Dunn |first=Christopher Allan |date=March 19, 2014 |title=Not by faith alone: Vittoria Colonna, Michelangelo and Reginald Pole and the evangelical movement in sixteenth century Italy |location=Washington, DC |publisher=Georgetown University |hdl=10822/709796))</ref> The movement is sometimes also called '''evangelism'''.

The ranks of the Spirituali included Cardinal [[Gasparo Contarini]] (1483–1542), Cardinal [[Jacopo Sadoleto]] (1477–1547), Cardinal [[Reginald Pole]] (1500–1558), Italian poet [[Vittoria Colonna]], and her friend, the artist [[Michelangelo]] (1475–1564), who painted the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel and the very controversial ''Last Judgement''. These "Italian evangelicals" proposed to reform the Church through a [[spirituality|spiritual]] renewal and internalization of faith by each individual, viewing the intense study of [[scripture]] and [[justification by faith]] as means to that end. "Central [to the ''Spirituali''] was a renewed emphasis on the grace which God sent through faith," writes Church Historian [[Diarmaid MacCulloch]], "together with a consistent urge to reveal the Holy Spirit as the force conveying this grace&nbsp;– to that associates of the movement were soon characterized as ''Spirituali''."<ref>Diarmaid MacCulloch, ''Reformation''. London 2004, p. 214f.</ref>

The Spirituali took many of their ideas from older Catholic texts, but certainly found inspiration in the [[Protestant Reformation]], especially [[Calvinism]], although they wanted peaceful internal reform, not a split. Had the movement become successful, the face of Europe would have changed, avoiding the excesses of the Reformation and the Counter-Reformation and perhaps changing the political and social reasons leading to the [[Thirty Years war]]. [[Benedictine]] monk [[:it:Benedetto Fontanini|Benedetto Fontanini]] wrote the first version of the most notable expression of Spirituali doctrine, the ''[[Beneficio di Cristo]]'' (The Benefit of Christ's Death), in 1543, attempting to prove that salvation comes through [[Sola fide]], or 'faith [in Christ] alone' (as Protestants insisted on), not through works or the Church; later the poet and humanist [[Marcantonio Flaminio]] revised it. The group printed forty thousand copies of the book, which was soon declared heretical and placed on the [[Index Librorum Prohibitorum]].

Although Spirituali occupied positions of high power within the ecclesiastical hierarchy, and may have even held the sympathy of [[Pope Paul III]], they failed to achieve much change, and more conservative "fundamentalist" ''[[zelanti]]'' currents set the Church on a course of confrontation with the Protestants at the [[Council of Trent]] (1545–1563), lumping them in with them.  The Spirituali's lack of success stemmed from inadequate support by the Church hierarchy, and the movement was doomed when Cardinal Pole, who was the choice of Pope Paul III, lost the papal election in 1549–1550 by one vote, after which their position made them suspect to both Protestants and conservative Catholics, allowing them to be outmaneuvered and defeated. Cardinal Pole's archenemy Cardinal Carafa, who would later become [[Pope Paul IV]] (r. 1555–1559), acted to suppress the Spirituali before and after attaining the papacy, and under him many went on trial before the [[Inquisition]], speedily exterminating the movement and ending all hope of a Protestant-like reform from within Catholicism. Cardinal Pole fled to England, while Paul IV tried unsuccessfully to have him brought back before the [[Catholic Inquisition]].
