Ah, cringe boomer Protestants.

Leftists sure are gonna miss them.

Rough

The atheists especially

That and RadTradCath instant converts

People who don't know Biblical explainations and theology in general are perfect food for atheists.

There's a nuance to every teaching, really, protestant or not.

Guys like Wycliffe and Tyndale weren't dumb, they were exceptionally smart men.

The Douay-Rheims 1899 Bible (one of the most popular in Catholic history), AND KJV are based off of Wycliffe's and Tyndale's translations.

Which is why you see similar language in both if you do Bible study and language comparison.

@rybus Huguenots were not in open revolt at the time. They were invited to a marriage in Paris. They went and were later massacred.

talking about after the marriage

the issue was it was a series of executions done by the crown done after/during the wedding, subsequent escalations on both sides, mostly by the Parisians, and then an open revolt and radicalization after the wedding had lead to the conflicts

and then the Huguenots were slaughtered completely

not even by crown authorities

after an attempted assassination of Gaspard II de Coligny

>Traditionally believed to have been instigated by Queen Catherine de' Medici, the mother of King Charles IX, the massacre took place a few days after the wedding day (18 August) of the king's sister Margaret to the Protestant Henry III of Navarre (the future Henry IV of France). Many of the most wealthy and prominent Huguenots had gathered in largely Catholic Paris to attend the wedding.

The massacre began in the night of 23–24 August 1572 (the eve of the feast of Bartholomew the Apostle), two days after the attempted assassination of Admiral Gaspard de Coligny, the military and political leader of the Huguenots. King Charles IX ordered the killing of a group of Huguenot leaders, including Coligny, and the slaughter spread throughout Paris. Lasting several weeks, the massacre expanded outward to other urban centres and the countryside.

```Catherine de' Medici, and her son, Charles IX, were practical in their support of peace and Coligny, as they were conscious of the kingdom's financial difficulties and the Huguenots' strong defensive position: they controlled the fortified towns of La Rochelle, La Charité-sur-Loire, Cognac, and Montauban.```

curious ^

need to find out what lead to the completely 180

```In the years preceding the massacre, Huguenot "political rhetoric" had for the first time taken a tone against not just the policies of a particular monarch of France, but monarchy in general. In part this was led by an apparent change in stance by John Calvin in his Readings on the Prophet Daniel, a book of 1561, in which he had argued that when kings disobey God, they "automatically abdicate their worldly power" – a change from his views in earlier works that even ungodly kings should be obeyed. This change was soon picked up by Huguenot writers, who began to expand on Calvin and promote the idea of the sovereignty of the people, ideas to which Catholic writers and preachers responded fiercely.[11]```

this also was an issue

from the same article

Crown over people. The crown's power was threatened.

unf the killing of the Huguenots lead to more anti-monarchial sentiment

much like how the Easter Rising in Ireland lead to anti-monarchial sentiment against the british in Ireland almost 300+ years later

martyrs are the vanguard of any revolution

```The royal marriage was arranged for 18 August 1572. It was not accepted by traditionalist Catholics or by the Pope. Both the Pope and King Philip II of Spain strongly condemned Catherine's Huguenot policy as well.```

this was also another compounded issue

France had two bad kings with the same mother.

rough

Idk if it's fair to say that huguenots were anti monarchical considering there was a big concern about them influencing kings and the like via the court to convert France

And they went to countries like Prussia once they were being butchered

also Netherlands and England

Of course like Farage's ancestors

Also America

Supposedly they helped develop industry there

Since they were highly active in France's textile manufactories etc.
