Reformation Calvinism was born under Jove. It flourishes under Jove and is spiritually healthy there. But for the last several centuries (at least) it has come under the baneful influence of Saturn . . . Just as Lucy and Susan wouldn’t feel safe around Bacchus unless Aslan was around, I don’t feel safe around Calvinists under Saturn. When these precious doctrines of ours are used to perpetuate gloom, severity, introspection, accusation, slander, gnat-strangling, and more, the soul is not safe.
