Seems to me the only ones holding the line against one-world humanism are the Calvinists.

Don't be reading your own press releases now. I am reminded of the little Dutch boy who stuck his finger in the dike, except that the disheveled little band of remaining Calvinists have their heads stuck. If the embittered Calvinist determinists were the world's defense against 'one-world humanism', we'd better start practicing L'Internationale.

Disheveled perhaps. But never embittered.

You miss the point of Calvinism if you assume we're bitter. I think it's the most life-affirming theology imaginable.

Calvinism says God made us to glorify Him and enjoy Him forever; that we're put on earth to follow Christ, to love one another and to prosper.

What could be more wonderful?
