You people think more about the man John Calvin than any Calvinist I've met. All you see is a label "Calvinist" and instantly you think "there's another follower of John Calvin, I'll remind him of Michael Servetus in a demeaning manner offensive to that wretched Calvinist".
Indeed.
It's worth pointing out that "Calvinism" does not mean the teachings of John Calvin, it means the teachings of the Continental and Scottish Reformed churches, as expressed at the ecumenical Synod of Dort.
I'm not even sure if John Calvin was actually a Calvinist.
