“An increase in quantity does not automatically bring an increase in quality. A larger membership does not necessarily represent a correspondingly increased commitment to Christ. Almost always the creative, dedicated minority has made the world better.”

1 Thess 4:9-10 (MSV):
“Now concerning love of the brothers and sisters, you do not need to have anyone write to you, for you yourselves have been taught by God to love one another; and indeed you do love all the brothers throughout Macedonia. We urge you, brothers, to do so more and more. Except for accountants, the bastards.”

Perhaps the same could be said of both Calvinists and Presbyterians.
Presbyterianism is sometimes called the business mans religion.
Indeed Scotch College here in Melbourne is famous for creating prominent movers and shakers in the world of business (busyness) and politics.
