Personality Types Drawn to Calvinism

If you’ve spent any time reading or watching content critiquing Calvinism, then you have certainly noticed the intensity of its defenders.

An interesting discussion that fits with my observations from the past few decades as I’ve moved in and out of Calvinist circles.
