Whoever maintains that wrong is done to heretics and blasphemers in punishing them makes himself an accomplice in their crimes. lol. Thanks again. You prove my point. Blood lust and tyranny.
Laugh all you want. That was a quote from John Calvin, so I guess that proves the point that he was all about blood lust and tyranny.

The difference, of course, is that "punishment" according to Calvin meant a reprimand in the Sunday sermon whereas Rome's "punishment" entails burning the heretic at the stake.
A difference apparently lost on all these FR Roman Catholics calling for a return to the Inquisition.
