... What's the differences between Calvinism and Baptist?
Either very little or very much, depending on which Baptist you ask. About the only thing Baptists really agree on is on their anti-Sacramentalism.
Yeah, there are especially many strains of Baptists as I understand it. Generally, your full blown Calvinist will differ from most other Christian denominations in that it teaches that God predestines some people to hell by depriving them of the graces they need to be saved.
Baptists run the gamut in Reformed theology between full on Calvinist to full on Arminian. The largest group, the Southern Baptists, can usually be characterized as Amyraldian, aka four point Calvinists.
