I was raised fairly Calvinist. Good works didn't matter nearly as much as theology, and had virtually no effect on eternity. In fact, I feel like I have a stronger sense of morality since leaving the faith, but the 'Calvinist God', if such a God exists, is still up there condemning me over a difference of opinion.
Go figure.
