Overlook the foibles of believe...How do I do what? Overlook the foibles of believers?<br /><br />As I said, I don't follow persons. But as it is, no one is perfect. If I thought I could find a perfect person to follow, I would be terribly disappointed my whole life.<br /><br />In addition, I have my own sins to worry about. I don't investigate and chastise others for their sins, unless such is proving to be harmful to others.<br /><br />Regarding Calvin, I'm not convinced that Calvin's cry to Melancthon could be properly called "praying" to him. And there is no evidence, as far as I know, that he continued it as a regular practice for the rest of his life.<br /><br />No, that being the case, Calvin is no more mentally unbalanced for that than the man who sits at his wife's graveside and speaks to her headstone, telling her how much he misses her. There is no intercession involved in asking someone to "wait for me." In both cases it's more cathartic than anything.Pilgrimsarbourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18046918223325823689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6422857.post-51649275425850195952009-10-15T15:05:34.776-04:002009-10-15T15:05:34.776-04:00Not to be uncharitable but, how do you do it?
