    1. Re: [HWE] Huguenot history
    2. Hello All, Yes, I too would be interested in reading of the beliefs of our Calvanist ancestors. Now before someone suggests that I run off to a particular website, I should add that, my particular interest is the Calvanist (Huguenot) belief as it was during the time of Calvin and not some modified to suit the day new age version. I would presume that the text would be in French or perhaps even Latin, either way I am sure such reading may be of interest in trying to prepare a paper on just why the Reformation occured, its' main players both political and religious and what good did any of do for the people of France. Dante, , HOTMAN (Franco-Gallia (1573)); Theodore BEZA ( De Jura Magistratum (1575)); Philippe de MAUNAY (Vidiciae Contra Tyrannos (1579) and others, often suggest that politics, or political pluralism, and not necessarily religion, were the hot topics of the time, rather than middle ranking Romanists wishing to change the thought of the Pope. History is a lesson in what was, is it correct ? Kind Regards, Peter Leroy
