Nee gigantus penis de papyrus, over potjes latijn gesproken, eerst eens goed lezen wat sir Edward Coke toepaste in Calvin`s case!
Dan mag je brullen, sir Edward Coke paste de theorie van Calvijn toe in deze rechtzaak.
Het punt wat je totaal ontgaat is dat Calvijn stelt dat de mens van nature (ingeboren dus) de wet van God is zich heeft, in zijn hart gegraveert dus.
De rest van de case en wat voor gevolgen het heeft in latere zaken is overduidelijk.
Maar daar gaat het niet om, ik vroeg wat je van de stelling vond!
Maar daar ga je maar aan voorbij, in je zoektocht naar nihilisme.
Als je nu verder had gekeken bij the London company had je kunnen lezen dat zij deze loop gebruikten
In 1644, the Second Anglo-Powhatan War erupted. Its origins are disputed. English apologists for the company say that Opchanacanough initiated the war. Native American apologist Robert Williams, a contemporary Native American Law Professor, argues that Opchanacanough had secured concessions from Governor Yeardley which the company would not accept. Thus, Opchanacanough's attack, on April 18, 1644, may have been a pre-emptive attempt to defeat the colony before reinforcements arrived. In about a day, 350 out of 1,240 colonists were killed, and some outlying settlements were wiped out. The Virginia Company quickly published an account of this attack which was steeped in Calvinist theology—the massacre was the work of Providence in that it gave a justification for the complete genocide of the Powhatans, and the building of settlements on their former towns. New orders called for a “perpetual war without peace or truce” “to root out from being any longer a people, so cursed a nation, ungrateful to all benefitte, and incapable of all goodnesses.” (bron wikipedia)
Daarbij heb je zeker weinig gegeten van Calvijn en zijn invloed, maar ik zal je een beetje verlichten over hem en het gevolg van zijn theorie.
Due to Calvin's missionary work in France, his programme of reform eventually reached the French-speaking provinces of the Netherlands. Calvinism was adopted in the Palatinate under Frederick III, which led to the formulation of the Heidelberg Catechism in 1563. This and the Belgic Confession were adopted as confessional standards in the first synod of the Dutch Reformed Church in 1571. Leading divines, either Calvinist or those sympathetic to Calvinism, settled in England (Martin Bucer, Peter Martyr, and Jan Laski) and Scotland (John Knox). During the English Civil War, the Calvinistic Puritans produced the Westminster Confession, which became the confessional standard for Presbyterians in the English-speaking world. Having established itself in Europe, the movement continued to spread to other parts of the world including North America, South Africa, and Korea.
Calvin did not live to see the foundation of his work grow into an international movement; but his death allowed his ideas to break out of their city of origin, to succeed far beyond their borders, and to establish their own distinct character. (bron wikipedia)
