Fascinating. Calvinists would have us believe that they personally were chosen for salvation before the end of the world, yet the Calvinist Mary was picked at random out of the Nazarene phone book Mary was chosen based on a Palestinian 7-11 winning Lotto ticket, but the "elect" God knew from before the foundation of the world... :) Calvinism would be hit on any Japanese game show.

Fatalism is the view that people cannot do anything other than what fate has determined that they will do.
Calvinism is the view that people cannot do anything other than what God has determined that they will do.
The main difference is the name that they give to their deity.
