Obviously I don't have a theological opinion, but there are some aspects of Calvinism like Limited Atonement that I don't understand how could fit into the Christian message ordinarily understood. Calvinism seems to me a very 'lawyerly' interpretation of Christianity, and not in a good sense.

I don't know enough about the Jansenist controversy to give an answer to the second, but the Jesuits have always been an intellectually rigorous order I have some respect for.
