"The French Revolution caused a much greater social change" The regimes that followed the tradition of the French revolution were not successful and resulted in the two greatest wars (WWI & II).
His analysis seems to completely ignore the long traditions of democratic representation present in the Anglo American world, vs the blatant absolutist power that the French King had over the French people (think Le etat et moi or I am the state quoted from the Sun King Louis XIV) The French Revolution caused a much greater social change than the American revolution or the English "Bloodless revolution" (England btw had a very bloody civil war 40 yeas prior). Thats why it was bloodier.
Calvin was no complement to the reformation. He was the first protestant pope of Geneva, and he was personally responsible for the murderer of Michael Servetus. Any there daring to voice disagreement with his theological views were sure to die if he found it out.
