All i Know is In 1509 Jean Cauvin (as the name was written at that time) was born in the town of Noyon in Picardy, Northern France, into a wealthy family. When he was 12 he was sent to school in Paris with the intention of becoming a priest, but his father later thought that he would earn his living better as a lawyer so he studied law in Bourges and Orl ?ans. He also learned classical languages and the humanist philosophy of Erasmus. As a young lawyer in Paris Calvin became attracted to the reforms of the church, subsequently known as Protestantism, proposed by the German priest Martin Luther. Calvin and his friend Nicolas Cop tried to organize and give structure to the new religious ideas. However, at the end of 1533 the French parliament considered that this movement would disturb the peace, so Cop and Calvin were exiled.
