This Week in Calvinism - July 3, 2009

  • Good old Calvinism.

  • There's a new play about John Calvin entitled "Geneva in Flames" that will make its debut in Switzerland. The director see it as "an opportunity to deconstruct some of the clichés and unfavorable images surrounding the character."

  • Tom Usher of Real Liberal Christian Church hates Calvin. And he thinks Calvinists are idiots. He writes, "Now, if you can't see that Calvin was a buffoon, what can anyone do for you?"

  • Mr. Usher hates Calvinism because it "doesn't jibe with Christianity," or what he calls "Acts-communism."

  • James is a former Southern Baptist who thinks his fellow Catholics should bone up on their Calvinism in order to better grapple with it. I still think James and I would get along. He may not be a Calvinist, but he is an LSU fan. :)

  • Calvinism in African-American history.
