  Calvin Simon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Calvin Simon (born May 22, 1942 in Beckley, West Virginia) was a member of the bands Parliament and Funkadelic.
Along with Fuzzy Haskins and Grady Thomas, Simon released an album called Connections and Disconnections, using the name "Funkadelic" after leaving the rest of the group due to financial and personal disputes with Clinton.
Calvin Simon now records under his own label, Simon Says Records and released a new CD in June 2004 called Share the News, which reached #32 on the "Billboard" Top Gospel Albums chart.

 Calvin: Commentaries (iv)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Calvin’s Commentaries profoundly influenced the churches of the Reformed tradition; and there can be little doubt that a renewed interest in them and study of them would not only contribute to a better understanding of Calvin, but would also have a profound influence on the mind and life of the church today.
Calvin was admired by his friends and feared by his enemies as a most learned man. But he never makes a display of his erudition and it seldom interferes with a forthright presentation of the meaning he saw it and with his communication with his hearers and readers.
Calvin appropriates it, and uses it freely and variously for an understanding of man. Calvin’s interpretation of this perspective may well appear to some readers as “pessimistic.” In the light of God’s wisdom, men seem to be given to folly which produces in turn the miseries writ large in their history.

 October 27: Servetus executed for heresy
He entered a church where Calvin was preaching, was recognized, and arrested on charges of blasphemy and heresy, although he was not a citizen and was just passing through town.
Although Calvin insisted with the rest that Servetus must die, he urged that in mercy Servetus be executed by the sword, not by burning, but the Council rejected the suggestion.
Calvin took a lot of heat for his role in the denunciation, trial and execution of Servetus and was not always honest in his account of what had happened.
