Archaea is an unknown quantity at this point
Default Great men still have major faults

Here is a link showing some of Luther's bigotry against Jews. Wikipedia because most here don't read German.

http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/On_the_Jews_and_Their_Lies

Why do people believe it is impossible for a man such as Luther or even Brigham Young to be inspired yet still have human failings such as bigoted attitudes?

The only perfect beings to walk this earth were Jesus, Luther, and Brigham Young.
