Catholic Calvinism or Calvinist Catholicism?

While it appears to be taken as a backhanded swipe (with a few compliments) from a religious liberal at both Catholicism and Calvinsim, Alan Austin's assertion "the organisation which today most closely reflects Calvin's vision is the church he sought to destroy" is worth a critical read — Calvin's war on the Catholic Church.

"In at least eight important respects the Catholic Church today manifests the French theologian’s teaching as emphatically as - if not more than - the Protestant churches founded on his precepts," Mr. Austin writes. Tolle, lege, but caveat lector. Read critically.
