To join your cult, the OPC, one must reject all of God's teachings and stop being a follower of Christ and become a follower of Calvin.

Follower of Calvin? Really? Could you please indicate in any of Calvin's writings where he said that? From my study of Calvin, I think he would be horrified to know that we have attached his name to any discipline of Biblical teaching. Evident particularly in the way that he denounces centralized anthropic teachings, his own words makes your claim regarding him absurd.

For Calvin teaches that one does not need to believe in Christ but one is part of an elite brahmin caste.

That is so over the top that I have no idea what Biblical doctrine your are trying to ridicule. It seems to me that you are laying out a choice in how people deal with you and your posts. Crap like this is virtual zot bait, in that as far as the admins allow, you can post this kind of dreck yet discover that you have been tuned out by your prospective audience. Or you can attempt to demonstrate some level of civility and respect for others and have a rational discussion.

Smackdown rhetoric can be fun, but calling the Remnant members of a cult? That isn't even heckling, its very much like the taunts and jeers of your typical Teamsters or SEIU thug. Don't be surprised if you have no friends in FR after posting this kind of junk.

Follower of Calvin —> that’s the OPC. Are you in the OPC?

The OPC believes in double predestination, namely that calvingod decides before time that person A goes to heaven and robot B goes to hell.

They attack anyone denying their vision of a Robot-Master God who creates robots good and bad, programs them to good or evil and at the end of their lives the robot-Master says "ha! ha! you did the evil I programmed you to do, now burn in hell for all eternity"

tuned out by your prospective audience.

you are correct. However, this is not directed at you or any other rational poster with whom one can actually converse with -- it is directed at the poster who starts off by saying "...is a property management company run by pederasts masquerading as men of God..." --> what you said is relevant to that poster too, correct?
