Quite a few lessons were learned from John Calvin dear cmj - which is why religious freedom and the forbidding of an established government church is enshrined in which Amendment of our “matchless” Constitution?

THE FIRST.

This is in the interest of Christians, not to our detriment.

Indeed. He, like Rome, used the civil authorities to kill theological heretics, and early Prots had many things it needed to unlearn from Rome (which commanded RC rulers to exterminate those she deemed to be heretics) and the world. And still does.
