Not only anti-Israel, but arguably anti-Roman Catholic.

Great guy!

Yeah. Like the part where he compares Calvin to Luther:" Calvin spoke to the learned at all times, even when preaching before multitudes. His manner is classical; he reasons on system; he has little humour; instead of striking with a cudgel he uses the weapons of a deadly logic and persuades by a teacher's authority, not by a demagogue's calling of names." If you read the paragraph before this, the demagogue he's referring to is Luther.

Then he has the temerity to tell me that as a Lutheran I'd be welcome under Ron Paul's big tent full of Calvinists.

I almost responded to that but thought better of it. He's too full of himself to understand how he insults people.

Bit obscure for me, who is not well-versed on the theological differences of various branches of protestanism.

The link from his page that caught my eye as a potential RCC slam was:

"CATHOLIC PRIEST ADMITS J*SUS WAS A BIBLICAL FUNDAMENTALIST!!!!! (My title, obviously)"

Even a good Jewish boy like me could see the animus there.

Actually, that quote is from the Catholic Encyclopedia.

I placed it there because I liked the fact that it demonstrated how even Calvin's enemies hold him in respectful regard. It's hardly my fault if the Roman Catholics abuse Luther with disrespect; I actually think Luther was a very good theologian, if not as systematic as Calvin... but I can hardly control what nasty things the Roman Catholics say about him, can I?! Sheesh!!
