Cranach was a heck of a painter, it ought to be a pretty good likeness.

Gosh! Didn't Calvin know that you're only spozed to pray to people who have shiny spangly things around their heads?

***Gosh! Didn’t Calvin know that you’re only spozed to pray to people who have shiny spangly things around their heads?***

I think that he did. But his adherents have edited that from their Confessions and their Catechisms and have substituted their own doctrines for Calvin’s doctrines which he substituted from the Church. And, let’s face it, when you are your own Pope, you act pretty much as you wish to do, whenever you wish to do it.

Turnabout is fair play, I guess. Calvin’s actual practices seem to be irrelevant, considering the brutal reign that he ruled in Geneva, which his adherents deny without any evidence whatsoever.
