The description of his demeanour seems accurate, yet every statue of him I've ever seen has him as very above average height. Why is this? Are the Reformers attempting to make up for shortfalls in his theology? Does he come up short in the brains department? Does he not measure up to Christianity? Is there less than meets the eye? Perhaps there is no more than a tiny tidbit inside a gigantic ego.

Yup, giant ego, no wonder we have those who think that Calvinism = Christianity

I wonder what would happen if Calvinism were literally true - and those who adhered to it were automatically excluded from salvation from the beginning of Creation. Since all Calvinists believe that they are of the elite, how would it affect their belief if they were told that they were excluded.
