He did it while he was a Calvinist. Nobody forced him to burn people and desecrate they're graves. He did it on his own.

And I suppose those obedient little 'bots who didn't separate themselves from the abject corruption and sin that was the Roman hierarchy in the 16th century could always be said to be just following orders.

That excuse didn't cut it at Nuremberg, IIRC.

What orders are you imagining now?

Exactly. That's why Calvin is guilty - not because he learned it, but because he did it.
