Not in the direction it’s going.

I am not in the least interested or happy to see any organization as powerful or influential as the Catholic church go the way of globalist, socialist, one world government/religion crowd.

Why?

Those who are, according to Calvinist belief, predestined, will leave ("irresistible grace"). Those who don't were damned to begin with, right?

I would think that all this would do would make the irresistible grace even more irresistible.

Again, I ask not out of disrespect...I genuinely am confused why this would be a problem to any Protestant, particularly a reformed Protestant.
