He was also a predestinarian.:>)
He also believed salamanders could live in fire and that there were people in the world who had no mouths and derived their nutrition from the air, and many other superstitious notions, many of which he introduced into Christianity, as all the synchrotistic doctrines borrowed from the Manichees, like a sinful nature.
(Mom, I know your busy just reading Calvin. But, read just some of Augustine and you will be surprised by how much of what he believed is pure superstition, and common to many cults today. I'm not judging him, he was only a man, but I find all those who put great faith in his teachings troubling.)
