They can innovate in such things because they are children encouraged to think for themselves. That is not to say that they are great moral thinkers; Trump isn't. They are the reformers and heretics. Howe and Strauss list a large number of intellectual revolutionaries (Luther, Calvin, Knox, Loyola, Zwingli) in the Reformation Generation that broke the intellectual smugness of the late medieval world.As for Prophet/Idealist generations I would make a distinction in terms of the double rhythm. Dionysus prophets tend to excel in the philosophical/religious/moral spheres, and may revolutionize the culture. Apollo prophets may excel in ideology, and invent blue prints for new worldly systems.
What do you mean different types of Prophets?
