Like you are a contemporary of Herbert Hoover?

Arminius was a student of Calvin's associate, Beza, at Geneva. Beza headed the Academy at Geneva and succeeded Calvin as pastor. Among Beza's many students at Geneva, the academic center of Calvinistic Europe, were John Knox and Arminius the Arminian.
