"Your cut and paste is woefully wrong as it relates to the Episcopalians on the list." ~ Siobhan
On the contrary, it relates to any American who, like our founders, loves and defends FREEDOM both at home and abroad.
Reiterating:
"The U.S. Constitution is a Calvinist's document through and through."
And because of that, they made sure that in America, one mans liberty will not depend upon another mans (religious) conscience (as in Europe)!
Dr. George Bancroft, arguably the most prominent American historian of the 19th century and not a Calvinist stated:
"He who will not honor the memory and respect the influence of Calvin knows but little of the origin of American liberty"

(Those who love the tyranny of Rome are enemies of freedom as America's founders knew.)

Those Episcopalians were no more Calvinists of your ilk than my Irish Wolfhound is a Calvinist, which is to say NOT.
