Grievances dating back 700 years have absolutely no probative value. So what if some Calvinists back then did some nasty deeds? It is irrelevant to the truth or falsity of their claims that God is sovereign and saves and reprobates whomever He will. It is a red herring, calculated only to prejudice readers.

Is that our cue to go back to discussing the Inquisition and the Crusades? ;-)

The Inquisition is in a different class. There is so much misinformation floating around out there (not the least of which due to Monty Python), while it is irrelevant, it still must be addressed.

(No one expects the Spanish Inquisition!)
