Well, now that Protestant is a term claimed by Calvinist for themselves, it does concern you in the sense that when I say that Protestants think of the church as the society of the elect, the fact that YOU don’t think so is not, strictly speaking relevant.

And your professorial lectures on Protestantism is, strictly speaking, irrelevant.

Well, now that Protestant is a term claimed by Calvinist for themselves... LOLOL. Where do you get this stuff?
If you're hoping to stir up the pot between Calvinists and non-Calvinists, you'll have to do better than that.
Thankfully, threads like this show the overwhelming agreement most Protestants (Calvinists included) have concerning God and men's salvation...
"Be not afraid; only believe." -- Mark 5:36
That the RCC is compelled to embroider God's grace with the filthy rags of men's good works simply displays Rome's myopia.
Pray for eyes to see.
