"Men are known by their enemies. Thus Calvin stands heads above Rome."

You are almost right. Men (and women) are measured by the standards they keep and the ends they aspire to. Calvin stands against the Church, but the Church stands against the gates of Hades. Calvin set about to create an enemy to give him worldly purpose and power, the Church set about to overcome and defeat Satan. Calvin created a church to serve himself, God created a Church to serve His flock.

Give up on your insane prattle. Your wit and inspiration are not half up to the task of harming the Church as you seek to do.

Very true, but sadly, you're mis-identifying that church.

Pray for new eyes to see.
