I’ve observed the Baptists try and have a conversation while calvinists just throw slime.

Excactly. And Calvinists are the last people who should bring up witch burnings and stealing property, after their looting of Ireland.

“And Calvinists are the last people who should bring up witch burnings and stealing property, after their looting of Ireland.”

In Drogheda there’s a street named Scarlett.

First, the Church of St. Mary was destroyed and later St. Peter’s Church was set afire. The defenders put up a vigorous defense but when Drogheda fell, 3500 defenders and civilians of the city had been killed.

Hence, why there’s a street in Drogheda named Scarlett.

After the slaughter of Drogheda, Cromwell gave this address:-

“This is a righteous judgment of God upon these barbarous wretches, who have imbrued their hands in so much innocent blood.... it will tend to prevent the effusion of blood for the future, which are satisfactory grounds to such actions, which otherwise work remorse and regret.”

And that was only the beginning for the “papists whores of babylon”....
