Where Are the Calvinists?

Since I didn’t alienate enough people last time, here’s my latest piece shaking my cane and yelling at Calvinists to stop shaking their canes and yelling at evangelicalis to get off their lawn:

It is true that there are lots of Reformed people in the movement, including people who are, as individuals, theologically well-developed. But if we look specifically at those whose particular contribution to the movement is to cultivate its theological development, whether we’re talking about academic theologians or anyone who makes this kind of contribution from any professional platform, I think you would be hard pressed to make a case that the Reformed are a disproportionate presence in the way that, say, Anglicans are given their size.

Feel free to shake your cane at me and yell at me to stop shaking my cane at Calvinists and yelling at them to stop shaking their cane at evangelicals and yelling at them. But watch out – someone might shake thier cane and yell at you too!

If you want a vision of the future, imagine old men yelling and shaking their canes at each other forever.
