  1. Primordius Drool: Brilliant. Just brilliant. I salute you.


  2. Getting Hobbes to talk when everybody else thought he was just a stuffed tiger.

  3. John Calvin (July 10, 1509 – May 27, 1564) was a French Protestant theologian during the Protestant Reformation and was a central developer of the system of Christian theology called Calvinism or Reformed theology. In Geneva, his ministry both attracted other Protestant refugees and over time made that city a major force in the spread of Reformed theology. He is famous for his teachings and writings, in particular for his Institutes of the Christian Religion.


  4. Calvin didn't live in the "Dark Ages."

  5. Lakewood C got it right.  Your question is based on false presumption. Calvin was a figure of the Reformation. He was a contemporary of Martin Luther (the founder of Lutheranism, not the civil rights leader assassinated in 1968). Also, the term Dark Ages is no longer used to refer to the Middle Ages (also the Medieval Period).
