Another was a Hungarian Unitarian Minister who won the debate with his calvanist peers but insensed the petulant and murderous hoard of calvanists led by their own ministers seized two Unitarian ministers intending to kill them bboth but managing to hang ony György Alvinczi while his co religionests illuded capture. The incident was reported to the Ottoman rulers who found the whole matter offensive and ordered the arrest and execution of the Calvanist Bishops. But in the end the lives of the Calvanist murderers was spared when the Muslim authority agreed to a request by the Unitarian clergy of Pect to show these men clemency but for the sake of justice impose an anual fine to be paid by the calvanist congregations for the ongoing needs and support of the Unitarian congregations of the region.Loosed Mindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06929348462863854549noreply@blogger.com
