Telling it like it is

Let's give it a rest.

No, these beliefs are not specific to Calvinism. These are foundation beliefs of the traditional Christian Churches, including the largest church in the world the Roman Church.

[Adam]

Yes, that's true, as St. Augustine in the 4th Century was a Roman Catholic. That's not news. Nor is it news that Paul invented lots of new theology that was a departure not just from Judaism but from his fellow Jewish Christians. So Christianity existed before Paul without Paul's doctrines that YOU say are foundational to Christianity.
Then along comes Augustine of Hippo three centuries later and ossifies Paulism into Augustinianism, a very predestinarian leap beyond anything preceding him and very much rejecting the prior leading Christian theologian (and philosopher and Bible critic), Origen.
Then eleven centuries later comes John Calvin and the development into Calvinism that is now rejected by almost all Christians.

No, Frank,
She is telling you (do you ever listen?) aboutBishop Gustav Aulen's "reincarnation" of THE traditional Christian theory of Atonement, the Classical Theory of Atonement.
Based on Jesus's words in Mark we find Jesus had to die to free Earth from Satan's dominion. As Satan as an angel pre-dated Adam, you are wrong to hold as essential that the non-Biblical concept of Original Sin and the not expressly biblical concept of the Fall of Adam.
Don't expect me to reply if you go off on your usual excuses for why in spite of everything you are not wrong.

One note: Satan's dominion on earth began with the Fall and Original Sin.

Yes, Calvinism is rejected by most, but these beliefs are not just Calvinist. It remains central tenants of the Roman Church taught in the catechism, the largest church in the world, and widely accepted among fundamentalist Christians.
