Calvinism

A system of belief promoted by its author John Calvin based entirely on a Platonic evaluation of the letters of Paul of Tarsus. Calvin posited that Christ died for a very few people and then re-interpreted both the Old Testament and the New Testament with the idea of a predestined fate for every person as being among the elected minority or the damned majority. It does great violence to the New Testament by making it subject to a Pauline interpretation of the Old Testament. Also a totalitarian pseudo-Christian cult of the Puritan or Reformed variety. It denies free will and imposes the biblical law of Calvin's Institutes on all people.
Calvinism was the theology behind the police state run by Oliver Cromwell in the 1650s.

Someone that is a complete bad ass. Or in other words, a BAMF.
If a Calvinator walked into a packed club, heads would be turned.

Calvin is a great guy. Calvin is really skinny and kind of tall. He’s athletic, has lots of friends, sometimes braggy and is well known. Everyone knows he’s goofy, live and has the biggest, most adorable smile you’ll ever see. It’s easy to be attracted to Calvin and if you hang out with him it’s hard not to catch feelings for him because he has the best personality. But truly getting to know Calvin and spending time with him is great because he’s really funny and always will make you smile. Cuddling Calvin feels like the best thing in the entire world because he knows how to hold you just right. But if you start actually “talking” to Calvin be aware that your feelings may be hurt because he has a lot of hoes. If you and Calvin stop talking it will probably be because of his hoes. You’ll never forget Calvin and will think of him all the time. Everything you do will remind you of all the good times that you shared with him. Missing Calvin hurts because you wish you could be with him all the time. When Calvin is upset with you all you could wish is for him to love you. But when you’re upset at Calvin it secretly hurts him but he will never let it show. You might have mixed emotions about Calvin but you don’t truly want to. But sometimes his “player” nature is shown and it hurts you hard. Calvin can sometimes be hard to love but you seem to always do.
“I love hanging out with Calvin even though he be playing with me sometimes” 🤦🏽 ♀️
