Yes, that is all that's taught by Calvinism.

Everything is the result of the intentional decision of God, bar nothing.

That's it.

Trust God and don't worry should be their slogan.

James beat us to it...

"Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain:

Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.

For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that." -- James 4:13-15

Xzins,
I respect what you are saying here. I am a Calvinist. I venture to say you are not (knowing a little about your background). You also illustrate what I say about it being a secondary doctrine about which Christians can disagree. You see the intent and where we get it from. You may agree with part but not all. But you know what, we can still fellowship together and that is really cool.
