Not to mention that laughing at the fact that a marriage ended in divorce is rather odd for a “Christian”.

I have met and had discourse with some Calvinists whom I am convinced are Christians in intent. But you are correct in that some of the Calvin Youth aftereffects rejoice in others' misfortunes, since that indicates to them that God doesn't like those unfortunates, and by extension, God loves these voyeurs.

That’s a shame. I’ve never known any Calvinists, at least not that I am aware of.

1 Cor 13:4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Congrats, it appears you have found supposedly professiong believers who are not perfect.
