There are plenty of posts dealing specifically with Calvinism, but I haven't been posting as often as I used to.<br /><br />Regarding this particular post, my comment about conservatives would apply to all government involvement. Sure, local is better than federal, but government is force, pure and simple.Lee Sheltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11254842261338255019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11738269.post-45574394696606547052014-01-10T09:24:30.668-06:002014-01-10T09:24:30.668-06:00Yes Mr. Shelton, Calvinists are interested in more...Yes Mr. Shelton, Calvinists are interested in more than just Calvinism, but your blog is titled "The Contemporary Calvinist," so I come here looking for posts somehow related to Calvinism. Sorry if I offended you. There are a countless number of blogs related to politics. I go to them for political discussion.<br /><br />BTW, I am very politically conservative/libertarian, and I wholeheartedly oppose federal involvement in education in any form. Comparing local governmental involvement in schools to Wilson would be extreme (if that's what you're doing).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11738269.post-11134015802452129832014-01-09T14:39:36.122-06:002014-01-09T14:39:36.122-06:00As for how this relates to Calvinism, I wasn't...As for how this relates to Calvinism, I wasn't aware Calvinists were only supposed to be concerned about Calvinism.Lee Sheltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11254842261338255019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11738269.post-44754234798055596232014-01-09T14:38:43.151-06:002014-01-09T14:38:43.151-06:00As one example, most conservatives I know support ...As one example, most conservatives I know support taxpayer-funded government schools.
