Calvinism is the only system that makes any sense.

James 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed.

John Calvin: "Wonderful, indeed, is the folly or the insincerity of the Papists, who strive to build their whispering confession on this passage. For it would be easy to infer from the words of James, that the priests alone ought to confess. For since a mutual, or to speak more plainly, a reciprocal confession is demanded here, no others are bidden to confess their own sins, but those who in their turn are fit to hear the confession of others; but this the priests claim for themselves alone. Then confession is required of them alone."

Especially considering he loves humanity as expressed in hte New Testament.
