The printing press was a big invention during the Reformation. It made making copies of books easier which made the travel of these books and other ideas more disperse and faster. Life before the printing press was based on the ideas of the Church. After ideas from others could spread easily and fast because the author of thinker didn't have to write each copy by hand.
An Anabaptist is a person who doesn't believe babies should be baptized because they won't remember it. Also, they didn't believe in state Churches. The founder was Ulrich Zwingli and was common in mostly Germany, Switzerland and the Netherlands. I live in Switzerland and we take our Anabaptism seriously. We are baptized at adult age and nowhere will you find a state church. Our lives are like normal baptists just we don't follow the rules about being baptized as a baby and having state churches. We do what most people do in he 1700s. Eat, sleep, think, write, and patronize. With the exception that we're in Switzerland and our winters are way worse.
