As a Wesleyan I dislike Calvin intensely, I think John Hooker had the right of it and I refuse to countenance Calvin's doctrine of preordained damnation.

HOWEVER, the rest is most welcome provided the theology is taught properly AND pre-Reformation theologians like Augustine are taught also, along with men like Luther, Tynedale, Wyclif, Crammer...

What is not acceptable is to teach "Christianity according to Calvin" any more than to teach Roman orthodoxy.
