go back to your first post 88.... Now if you want to talk about how Calvinists were like Jihadis — you start your own thread and we’ll join and point out how they supported the Ottomon Moslems in Hungary and were fighting against Christians in the Siege of Vienna...oh and how they went to South Africa to inaugurate apartheid, and in the way they participated in the kulturkampf in germany?

Go back to #88? Why be so cagey? There was nothing there that initiates the wide range of issues you wish to somehow tie into this thread, entitled John Calvin was America’s ’Founding Father’ [Presbyterian Rebellion Day] unless it be my own brief mention of unless one wants to look upon it as continuation of the religious wars in Europe or something to that effect.

Looking at that lengthy list of other "items" you have brought up, I can't help but to think that is some form of attempt to drag the discussion which has been going on here ~ off into the bushes.

It's an age-old debating tactic, but highly transparent.

Looks like you could start about four threads there at least. Maybe you could ping all your buddies and get a real hate-them-Calvinists-they-are-the-cause-of-all-ills hatefest going? Ya'll have fun, but no thanks, (unless there were a lot of good links leading to interesting reading, heheh...)
