This article is a good reminder of what Calvinism is, & it at least with me, achieves your goal of eliciting empathy for Calvin's dilemma, as well as that of reformed theologians today.
I was enlightened by your blog on Calvin and Calvinism. One thing I have been curious about is his relationship with the city of Geneva. I understand he had great authority over the administration of the city, including the severe punishment of heretics using the power of the city. Can you suggest any good resources for my further exploration of what seems like a Genevan theocracy?
