By "not big", do you mean their names were not much
mentioned, and they weren't much quoted? That has little to do with it. The
biggest influences are quite often not known by name and not consciously
recognized.

I'll accept Satan and the flesh David but - Augustine
and Calvin were not big in Australia when I was growing up.
Not in the circles I moved in anyway. Maybe you
could explain how and in what ways they have influenced society
Otherwise to me this is just the reverse
of Lance telling us we can't know anything because of the
enlightenment
Well it has about the same effect anyway.

Judy, you misunderstand. The BIGGEST influence in your life is
the Spirit of God. I never meant to list influences to the exclusion
of him.
All of us have been influenced by Augustine, Calvin, our
flesh, Satan, etc. The Bible teaches us that all have sinned and
fallen short of the glory of God. That takes care of the flesh and of
Satan. Besides, which of us have not been influenced to eat, or to
marry and reproduce, or to do something wrong? As for Augustine and
Calvin, one only need study history and philosophy to realize their impact
on the world, and if we are in the world, then they have influenced us in
some way.
Peace be with you.

Good question - it appears as though to some
people
I've been influenced by everything BUT the Spirit
of God.
I'd like to see the facts myself.

Why would any sane person not believe that JT has been
influenced by
Augustine, Calvin, her flesh, Satan, etc.? Why make
an argument out of a
truism?
