You might reread your question and try to restate it, but for the
price I think it is too open ended, especially the "etc."  Does that
include Islam, Confucianism, Buddhism?

I can't answer your question, but am grateful to you for asking, as I
had never previously encountered the word Aminian (I've now Googled
it, of course). In fact, I thought it was a mis-spelling, and was
baffled as to why you thought John Wesley was Armenian! Incidentally,
myoarin above seems to have misread your question; as I read it, you
are simply asking about people adhering to Calvinism and Arminianism -
not any other religion.

And I am grateful to Geof for catching my mistake.  
With apologies to Tateti for having gone off half cocked.  I too was
thinking it was a misspelling, which sometimes triggers doubts about a
short question, especially as I wondered how Calvinism and the
Armenian religion could be coupled or opposed in one question.
I should have had more consideration for the questioner, having
appreciated other questions by Tateti.
Next year, Myo, Resolution # 42 ...

Hi myoarin, hi geof,

Thank you for your comments. Myoarin, I also had to check before
writing the word "Arminians"! Yes geof, you got it. I was simply
asking about people adhering to Calvinism and Arminianism principles.

So far I was not able to find a list of people as mentioned before,
but I could find something that is of interest to me:

Denominations leaning in the Arminian direction:
Methodists
Pentecostals

Denominations leaning in the Calvinist direction:
Lutherans
Southern Baptists
Presbyterians
Reformed churches
Anglicans
Fundamental Independent Baptists

Anyway, I will leave the question open for a while.

Regards,

Tateti.
