/lit/ - Literature

Decided to read through The Institutes of The Christian Religion by John Calvin. I opened on Chapter 7 just because I was interested to see the Catholic argument against Sola Scriptura directly addressed. Calvin's argument is the same as what I thought to be very intuitive: if Scripture comes from God then it precedes the formation of the church in both its creation and authority.
It's a real shame that Reformed Theology is neglected so much in places like /lit/ and in the broader zeitgeist. If people would read something as concise and accessible as The Institutes, they wouldn't turn to weird Orthodox ritualism to salvage Christianity. The way many people turn to Catholcism and Orthodoxy is reminiscent of the way so many westerners turn to Eastern philosophy: its exotic and different.
