Do you think of Calvinism as contemporary? " Poverty, according to Calvin, was a curse cast upon the most evil of people. The worst of the worst were the poor and the shiftless." Being from Puritan stock, I've encountered demonization of the poor especially in my New England relatives. It's been imbedded in our capitalist system since the beginning.
Absolutely. It's not overt, however the Calvinist word-view motivates how we think, act, and feel. Not you. Not me. But the congress, the large identity structures of the world. Thank you for getting me. Thank you for engaging.
