Crazy Calvin

This semester is about to mercifully come to an end whether I like it or not. I've almost completed Calvin's Institutes. I'm now reading a section that absolutely blows my mind - not in a good way. Calvin's take on the sacraments are just nonsense. He values the sacraments accurately, but his take on infant baptism and the Lord's Supper are just flat ridiculous. I understand his argument for infant baptism - meaning, I understand where he's coming from. I don't agree with him but I understand him. The part I don't understand is HOW IN THE WORLD DOES HE BELIEVE THIS AFTER HE'S SO CLEAR ON THE MEANING OF BAPTISM?!!?! His section on baptism is very, well, Baptistic (which is good). Then out of nowhere he's all like, "baptizing babies is ok because they'll grow into their faith [and like such as]." (I know I just typed out the phrase "he's all like") If you ever decide to read The Institutes - which you should (especially the part on prayer and Christian living) - even if you don't agree with predestination (that's barely any of what these books are about), just go ahead and skip the part on infant baptism. GAAAHHH! or in the words of Charlie Brown - AARRRGGGHHHHH!
