This list never fails to make me smile, but it's missing several terms like 'Confessionalism', 'Calvinism', etc. Anyone care to suggest definitions?

Depends on who is defining, our opponents might say

1. toy robots programed to say I love you God

I have actually heard Hank Hennigrff do this by saying Calvinism can't be true because that would reduce Christians to Chatty Cathy dolls.

Calvinism: some have been predestined to receive eternal toys, others have not.

Nuance:

Moderate Calvinism: only the elect receive eternal toys, but the non-elect receive temporal toys in this life.

High Calvinism: only the elect receive eternal toys and temporal toys, the non-elect get no toys in this life.

Moderate Calvinism: eternal toys are sincerely offered to the non-elect.

High Calvinism: there is no well-meant offer of toys to the non-elect.
