There is little common ground with people who assert this TULIP system. They believe Christ Jesus only died for some and that God only loves them, this has to have an impact on a person's psyche over time.
They live up to the stereotype over and over again.
It can start okay, but ultimately because of their theology and their constant need for affirmation of a wrong doctrine (dunno,maybe deep down the know they are wrong) it ends up going sour.
Probably some are Christians but their doctrine stunts their growth despite all the intellectualism of their leaders like Piper, Sproul, MacArthur, Begg, Baucham etc.,etc.,
As someone once told me, Calvinist are okay until they start talking about their doctrines, I find this to be so true with people like Baucham etc., and even on here.

Catholics teach and believe that the wine becomes the literal blood of Jesus.
Catholics teach and believe that God waved his wand and transformed Mary into having no sin nature.
They will argue with you ad ad infinitum.
Now?
Calvinists teach and believe that Jesus only died for some of the sins of mankind - for the elect only.
Calvinists teach and believe that God forces people to believe in Jesus. - Irresistible grace.
They will argue with you ad ad infinitum.
Need I say more? They both came out of the era of the dark ages ...
One broke away from total idiocy of the RCC, and ran into a semblance of Biblical sense, (that was till needing some work).
