There aren't a whole lot of Calvinists around here, at least that I am aware of, but I do prayer-vigil at the local abortion chop-shop with one set of Calvinists, and my husband and I sing from a shape-note hymnal ("Christian Harmony") with a sweet Calvinist couple with two cherubic tiny sons. Their kids are named "Justified-by-Faith" and "Strong-in-the-Hope-of-Deliverance".

I kid you not.

You're right, we are few in number.

I thought those names went out with the old English Puritans and the Pilgrim Fathers.

There was a fellow in London named "Had-Jesus-Christ-Not-Died-For-Thee-Thou-Hadst-Been-Damned Barebones". He changed his name to Nicholas Barbon and started the first fire insurance company.

You can look it up.

I grew up in and around Calvinist Central, which would include Hope College and Calvin College. Calvinists are not Catholics in theology or practices. BTW, Amway = Calvinist and has delivered millions and millions to Calvinist causes. Amway has also delivered millions and millions to other causes including truly significant medical $$$.
