Reformed theology appeals to people who at some point in their lives were "not very nice." Perhaps they were ostracized by others, constantly in trouble, and on the wrong side of the law, literally lost in their misfortune, and someone came to them and said "Jesus loves youIt is possible that this is the first time anyone has ever told those words, that even they can be loved. So, it is no wonder they were drawn to it.

wow, you are so absolutely correct! By the age of 7, when I came to Jesus, I was such a derelict---- gosh, I carried double cap pistols, shot up the cow pasture, hated school, said I was sick when I wasn't, and got beat up my brother. And I bet many people here were worse.
