it is a niche version of Calvinism that is only common in the USA

Due to their fondness for finding new suckers, it's now common in much of the Christian world, especially Mexico, Central America, Korea and some parts of Africa. Also, the source population for the spread of this contagion to the New World, the Protestants in Northern Ireland, have maintained relations with US fundies and many have adopted broadly similar beliefs.

If I could slap the shit out of any man in history he’s in my top two.

Likewise. It's amazing how much Calivin's followers, when in power, ruled just like the Taliban. He was a power-mad bloodless berk full of hatred for life.
