The charges against Servetus were that he rejected the Trinity in favor of Sabellian unitarianism, and that he rejected infant baptism. Eschatology wasn’t the issue.

>As all of Europe at that time was Amillennialist, both Catholic and Protestantism, as Premillennialism was yet to be discovered, of course eschatology was not the issue.

But Premillennialists such as myself, looking back to the time of Calvin, see Amillennialism a prime motivation behind the “purging” of the “kingdom of God,” meaning Protestant and Catholic Europe, of its alleged “heretics.” Though certainly not the only reason.

Also, thanks for bringing up infant baptism, another issue that Calvin was on the wrong side of, which I should have added to my list in my previous post.
