lizzybean:
The Church of Scotland is a traditional Reformed
(Calvinist) church. I don't know what doctrines JKR personally
subscribes to. But I do think it's safe to say that she is a Calvinist
- she is a member of a Calvinist church & has attended that church for
12+ years, christianed her child there, etc

Lynda:
It probably is safe to say that, but, there could have been other reasons
for her choice of a church than Calvinistic beliefs.  I attended a
university that teaches Calvinism (to the exclusion of Arminianism) and have
never subscribed to that doctrine. It made me look at both sides of the
doctrine to attend that school, though. In the long run, whatever her
beliefs, she seems to have done a good job combining the idea of a
Calvinistic type destiny within a more flexible system where it concerns HP.
