'''Balthasar Hubmaier''' (born in Frieburg, [[Germany]] in 1480, died in [[Vienna]], March 10, 1528) was a [[Roman Catholic]] priest, then [[Protestant Reformation|Reformer]] and [[anabaptist]] preacher. After being ordained a Catholic priest, he earned a degree in theology from the University of Ingolstadt in 1512. Hubmaier then taught at the university, and later became a popular Catholic preacher, due to his going along with the current anti-Semetic sentiment. His departure from Catholicism and acceptance of the Protestant movement were unexplained. In April, 1523, despite a letter from the bishop to Waldshut, preached the [[Gospel]], and called the priests who wouldn't "soul murderers...messengers of Satan, eaters of souls." Hubmaier took part in the [[Zurich]] religious debates of October. In July, 1527, the Vienna police made their move, arresting Hubmaier. After being questioned, refuted, and tortured, Hubmaier was burned at the stake as a heretic on March 10, 1528. His wife was quietly drowned in the [[Danube]], also as a heretic, three days later.<ref>Brian H.
