It's one of the more idiotic Christian philosophical perspectives out there.

Idk much about it other than predestination, which is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard from any religion ever

I think they call it "pre-election" now - where of course they are the "elect". Predestination does have a certain pretentiousness as a concept and the term became offensive in most circles.

Calvin also watered down the traditional "Christian" stance against charging interest which allowed capitalism to take off and become super lucrative for lenders. Weber discusses this extensively in The Protestant Work Ethic.

I think it's a shame it's such a great comic character inspired such a terrible religion. We should make a really good religion based on Hagar the Horrible to balance things out.
