Did anyone else find Orran/Olan to be very VERY similar to Martin Luther and the other monks/theologians from his time? Uncovering the truth of the churches corruption and then being burnt at the stake for it? Marting Luther wasn't executed, but he almost was and many of his friends were.

The entire game is based on political and religious beliefs, as is modern day Earth.

It's not surprising that there is links between Tactics and the real world.

I'm guessing it's a coincidence. I mean, a person who wants equality isn't exactly a rare thing.

Not only that, but don't forget, that people used to be branded witch or heretic when going against those that were in power. Tactics takes place in a world that is still within that time period.

Wow, you guys sure don't look very deeply at things. I know that people were branded as heretics and put to death. That's not who I'm comparing Orran to. I'm comparing him to Martin Luther and Luther's friends. Orran wrote the Durai Report, a document that disproved all of the church's teachings. Martin Luther did the exact same thing, he wrote papers that disproved the church's teachings and their scams.

It's obviously not a coincidence.

actually it is coincidence, because Martin Luthor was not the first to be persecuted for going against the main religion. It has happened throughout history. The only connection that can be made is the fact both Oran and martin Luthor exposed the bad that the church was doing at the time. you cannot compare them though because, Martin Luthor also founded his own church after he discovered what was going on. Orran on the otherhand was just burned to keep what he found from the public.
