There are people that consider Calvinism as a cult. In the truest sense it is not normally practiced as a cult.
But there are issues that make Calvinists "prown" in some cases to apply their religion as a cult. Convincing a mother that they must be submissive by direction of the Word of God. They are convinced that God wants them to be submissive. And there are passages in the Bible that would suggest that the mother has no right to refuse her husband and she is his to take. Since the Bible does not list abuse as a reason to leave her husband, he can beat her and force himself on her and she may feel that the Word of God tells her that she must stay and take it. Then the children are raised in this atmosphere of spare the rod and spoil the child. They see their mother being beat so they think it is normal for them to beat. And then the male children are taught to do this to their wives and children. If you notice there are none or few female Calvinists on this forum. Ask them why? This is the side of Calvinism that leans toward cultism and it is the reason that Interventionists and law enforcement are called in to attempt rescues.
But still some Calvinists are better than other....but placing women in submissive subjection is a common practice.
You can look at a religion and usually see what motivates it and the character of the people that subscribe to it. The Jehovah's Witnesses study the Bible to prove that Christ was not God and Hell is not real. There is a reason why Charles "Taze" Russell did that. This is another religion where women and children are forced to be submissive and abuse is common.
The Calvinists comb the scriptures to support their absurd beliefs that blasphemes God....the Witnesses comb the scriptures to deny the Deity of Christ. What drives these people, what motivates them? We cannot keep blaming John Calvin and Taze....they are dead. Some people are attracted to blaspheming God and this is part of it....the desire to be different....that is the reason a lot of times young people are attracted to witchcraft ....Just to get attention and be different.
A lot of words and sentences in the Bible...They can formulate a lot of crazy religions that involves flying saucers. They can say because Yahweh killed in large number and taught His people to kill that He is a God of murder. Some one could come up with beliefs that say God was a fertility God because the symbol of the Old Covenant was the circumcised penis and He regulated polygamy and concubinage and most of His promises to individuals involved multiplying their descendants as the stars in the sky, the sands of the shores, and the dust of the earth. Some could find reason that God hates women and they should be enslaved. That Christ was crucified as a punishment for His Father's atrocities. If it is in your nature to find evil you can interpret the scriptures to be evil.
As it stands predestination as a reality....the puppet show....serves no purpose.
The only thing it does theologically is blasphemes God.
And the only person that it benefits is Satan because it guarantees Satan a quota of souls.
So ultimately, Calvinism only purpose is to blasphemes God and serves Satan.
So on Judgment Day it all depends on Christ's judgment on blasphemers and those that serve Satan as to whether or not they go to hell.
