Geneva marks Calvin era 500th birthday across globe
The quincentennial of John Calvin’s birth July 10, 1509, is observed worldwide with lectures, exhibitions, concerts, and theater. Geneva hosts events led by the World Alliance of Reformed Churches, while stamps and souvenirs celebrate “Calvinomania” amid debates over his legacy in religion and politics. Geneva’s Calvinist influence persists despite a shrinking local Reformed community, and Calvin’s footprint includes founding figures like the International Red Cross and the League of Nations.

Hindu dad alleges son forced to eat beef at school

Ashish Gandhi says the public magnet school Academy of World Languages violated religious dietary beliefs. School officials say the student chose the taco and staff were unaware of restrictions.
